try getting rid of the 'font standard'. from the ps.map man page: """ font font name The name of the PostScript font. Fonts present in all PostScript implementations are: Times-Roman, Times-Italic, Times- Bold, Times-BoldItalic, Helvetica, Hel- vetica-Oblique, Helvetica-Bold, Hel- vetica-BoldOblique, Courier, Courier- Oblique, Courier-Bold, and Courier- BoldOblique. The default is Helvetica. """ also try using "fontsize 12" or so, the default with v.labels is to size the font by map units (to allow e.g. small towns to dissapear as you zoom out), but if you mistake the size setting for fontsize, you letters are e.g. 12m tall on a grid of many kilometers.. does the same labels file work ok in an Xmon with 'd.labels'?
