Hi Jim: Here are the results of a simple test I tried with -DPLD_plmeta=ON
# Build what is relevant make plrender make plmeta make x01c make ps # Test examples/c/x01c -dev psc -o test1.psc examples/c/x01c -dev plmeta -o test.plmeta utils/plrender test.plmeta -dev psc -o test2.psc There were no build issues and no run time issues. However, test1.psc was quite different (text size, etc.,) from test2.psc, and I was under the impression that the effect of all your recent plmeta/plrender changes was those two files should be identical (modulo the possibility of some small rounding errors). This issue is not release critical (since -DPLD_plmeta=OFF by default), and I definitely don't plan to push any further plmeta/plrender changes prior to the release (deep freeze and all that) nor try -DPLD_plmeta=ON again until post-release. However, I did notice this issue so I thought I should bring it to your attention, and I encourage you to follow up immediately on a topic branch with the goal of pushing the plmeta/plrender fix for this issue soon after the release.
