David:

I'm sorry to get back on this issue, but if I've understood right, I should
change

    DefaultFontID   =  c_func( xGetStockObject, { ANSI_VAR_FONT } ),

by

    DefaultFontID   =  c_func( xGetStockObject, { SYSTEM_FONT } ),

in win32lib.ew

I did so, but fonts look much smaller than should be, even with this chage.

> so I'll probably change it back soon.

I've noticed you have changed it in 0.45l, but Isee no difference.
Maybe the "point" to focus is the environment I use:

Does anybody else use Euphoria 2.2 under WinNT 4.0 Service Pack 5?.

Running the Win32lib examples show the same effect:

For instance EX10.EXW shows by default a 14 point "Times New Roman" font.
Opening the "Times New Roman" font from the font directory in Winnt, and
comparing the fonts that show there with the ones generated by EX10.EXW when
clicking the scroll bar, I see that a EX10.EXW font size of 26 looks like a
Winnt/fonts size of 18....

Any ideas?.
Thanks.
Jesús.
