In NS 4.76 (Linux) I need to set "overwrite document-specified fonts" to get it in fixed width. Usually that means that the specified font is not available on my computer/system and the replacement is then more or less random. If I understand you right than you cannot change that yourself but using no special font or at least a well distributet one (e.g. Courier) could help. > There might be copyright issues apparently (The bbc is paranoid about stuff > like that).

You might add "non commercial" somewhere. :) Andreas .. -._ ._.--. _.. - ' , `.- ' .-- ~- ' ( ) (,-- --._.'-. .--._ ( .- .n__.-:_,---. `--._.'`-' ________________________________ /_oo=oO_ c-c'____________________a:f http://www.stud.uni-hannover.de/~freise http://www.ascii-art.de
