Ben Bogart had this problem as well, basically the font wasn't
recognized by the system. Can you use that font in anything?
I think he solved it by reinstalling x-ttcidfont-conf. On a Debian-
esque machine, you do this:
apt-get install --reinstall x-ttcidfont-conf
.hc

I guess that is not correct, since it changes to the same font no
matter what I put there. I do have Bitstream Vera Sans Mono
installed.

You're right. It looks like it's using regular Bitstream Vera Sans
rather than Mono?
I have this line in my .pdrc
-font-face "Bitstream Vera Sans Mono"
Is that correct?
Also, Pd-Extended defaults to Monaco on OS X, which is included,
but I don't like it since it is not anti-aliased (I posted about
that elsewhere).

The following lines:
sys_fontlist[i].fi_hostfontsize =
atom_getintarg(3 * best + 2, argc, argv);
sys_fontlist[i].fi_width = atom_getintarg(3 * best + 3,
argc, argv);
sys_fontlist[i].fi _height = atom_getintarg(3 * best + 4,
argc, argv);
are how Pd finds out the actual font size from teh Tk front end; in Pd
extended the font patch comments these lines out, so Pd assumes the
font
size is exactly as specified. This leads to problems like clicking
on one
place and getting text selected in another. I never understood why
the
lines were commented out.
I'm not sure how wise it is to make a relase of Pd that depends on
having
a particular font installed... looks like this breaks a lot of
machines.
