Re: EDM font sizes

[Kevin Anderson <kehander@alumni.uwaterloo.ca>]

Try adding this to fonts.list instead:
-adobe-times-medium-r-normal--*-340-100-100-p-*-iso8859-1

On my computer here this looks pixellated, apparently because it's not 
a scalable font.  It shows up in the list that appears when I select 
View->Font Mappings from the edm main window as
-adobe-times-medium-r-normal--47-340-100-100-p-0-iso8859-1

I'm not sure if or how a better-looking scalable version might be used 
instead.

You might have better luck specifying your fonts using the "Version 3" 
font-list format detailed in the EDM documentation rather than adding 
on to the "Version 1" format-file included with EDM.
