Hi, I am a little confused about X font compresion!
I usualy compress all the X fonts to save a lot of space
and that is what I did after I upgraded to ultrix 4.2 with
the pcf fonts for Xws. It works great.
BUT, when I started the bookreader (dxbook) to look at the
files on the BookReader CD, I got error that, can't find fonts...
but the compressed fonts were there . So I went and uncompressed
all the fonts and then dxbook started working.
So whose job is it to understand comperssed fonts Xws or
the dxbook? I thought the server suppose to to that.
My envirnment is that My Xserver is Xws but most of the
programs I use are X11R4!
Thanks for your help.
