Hi, I having all sorts of trouble with trying to get fonts to match up the rest of my LaTeX document in publication figures. I find that output strongly depends on the format and that I actually get the absolute worst results with EPS - whereas I would hope for the absolute best result with that format (b/c it's a vector format). Well, here's an example. top = Graphics[{Thick, Line[{{0, 0}, {5, 0}}]}]; bottom = Graphics[{Thick, Line[{{0, 2}, {5, 2}}]}]; labelZ = Graphics[ Text[StyleForm["z=0", FontFamily -> "cmmi10", FontWeight -> Bold, FontSlant -> Italic, Black, FontSize -> 24], {5.1, .1}, {-1, 0} ]]; geom = Show[top, bottom, labelZ] Export["C:/af/Lines.eps", geom]; I'm using cmmi10 due to the recommendation of SWP guys. Perhaps I should use a different font or output to a different format? Many thanks in advance! Aaron
