When we upgraded to Motif, we had similar problems. We fixed the problem by adding the following lines to the DECW$SYSTEM_DEFAULTS:DECW$TERMINAL.DAT resource file: DECW$TERMINAL.main.terminal.littleFontSetName: -*-Terminal-*-*-*--*-100-*-*-*-*-*-* DECW$TERMINAL.main.terminal.bigFontSetName: -*-Terminal-*-*-*--*-140-*-*-*-*-*-* (note that each of these is all on one line, not split like I have shown them here). If you want to redefine the German standard font as well, you'll need to add something similar to this (which I haven't tried): DECW$TERMINAL.main.terminal.gsFontSetName: -*-Terminal-*-*-*-GS-*-100-*-*-*-*-*-* The important parameters (should you care to adjust them) are the 100 and 140 in the Xwindow font strings. - Tom -- Thomas H.
