Thanks for that Maarten. That explains it. David Park djmpark at comcast.net http://home.comcast.net/~djmpark From: Maarten van der Burgt [mailto:maarten.vanderburgt at icos.be] David, If you add the options ImageSize ->180, you get something very similar to the Neat Example. Rescaling the graphics with the mouse does the same. I think that in the documentation notebooks, graphics are by default rendered to a smaller image size than in a standard notebook. The size of the 'Q' is determined by the number of 'printer' point, in casu 87.5.

Graphics[Table[GeometricTransformation[Style[Text ["Q"],87.5],RotationTransform[a,{0,1}]],{a,Pi/5 Range[10]}]] When this is evaluated in the documentation notebook one picture is obtained. But when it is copied and evaluated in a fresh Default notebook, an entirely different picture is obtained, with the Q characters quite separated. Can anyone explain this strange result? -- David Park djmpark at comcast.net http://home.comcast.net/~djmpark/
