I get them often with half-pitch Katana in some Japanese applications. I'd say that the problem is related to your psfonts*.properties file, but I can't say just what exactly. Starting places include: Do you have a lot of .ttf files in $JRE_HOME/lib/fonts? Do you have a localized psfont.properties file in $JRE_HOME/lib? Hope this helps. --- Michael Westbay Work: Beacon-IT http://www.beacon-it.co.jp/ Home: http://www1.seaple.icc.ne.jp/westbay Commentary: http://www.japanesebaseball.com/forum/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
