Re: Font differences between Gempak5.9.2 and Gempak5.10.2

Pete,
Thanks for your suggestion. I was indeed using the "gif" driver, but when I use the "gf" driver instead I get similar results as I show below. The main thing I'm having trouble figuring out is why this won't plot correctly in GEMPAK5.10.2, while it works fine in GEMPAK5.9.2.

In my previous examples I was using gif, now I use the gf driver: (DEVICE = gf|OUTPUTFILE|800;600)

GEMPAK5.9.2, using SFMAP:
TEXT= .7:
http://www.met.sjsu.edu/weather/surface/24hour-e.gif
TEXT=1/21/SW:
http://www.met.sjsu.edu/weather/surface/24hour-f.gif

BUT,
GEMPAK5.10.2, using SFMAP:
TEXT= .7:
http://www.met.sjsu.edu/weather/surface/24hour-g.gif
TEXT=1/21/SW:
http://www.met.sjsu.edu/weather/surface/24hour-h.gif

 Anyone?

Hi Mike..

The only thing I can think of offhand is be sure the driver is set to gf instead of gif.

For example

device = gf|test.gif

instead of

device = gif|test.gif
The "gif" driver (not "gf") will not accept hw fonts.

Gembuds,
I have been having trouble getting GEMPAK 5.10.2 to change the font
size. Has anyone else noticed font behavior differences between 5.9.2
and 5.10.2?

Running on my linux machine (2.6.15-1.2054_FC5), using linux
binaries, I get two different outcomes from identical scripts:

For Example:
GEMPAK5.9.2, using SFMAP:
TEXT= .7:
<http://www.met.sjsu.edu/weather/surface/24hour-a.gif>http://www.met.sjsu.edu/weather/surface/24hour-a.gif
TEXT=1/21/SW:
<http://www.met.sjsu.edu/weather/surface/24hour-b.gif>http://www.met.sjsu.edu/weather/surface/24hour-b.gif

BUT,
GEMPAK5.10.2, using SFMAP:
TEXT= .7:
<http://www.met.sjsu.edu/weather/surface/24hour-c.gif>http://www.met.sjsu.edu/weather/surface/24hour-c.gif
TEXT=1/21/SW:
<http://www.met.sjsu.edu/weather/surface/24hour-d.gif>http://www.met.sjsu.edu/weather/surface/24hour-d.gif

Thanks for anyone who might have an explanation or a solution.

-Mike
