Hi, I'm running Linux, Debian unstable, and I am getting an error
message everytime I try to display a time series plot in gretl.

The error is:

"Could not find/open font when opening font "arial", using internal
non-scalable font"

The thing is when I look in Gretl's configuration/temp folder (~/.gretl)
I see the time series plot I just tried to make.

I've tried setting the environmental variables GNUPLOT_DEFAULT_GDFONT
and GDFONTPATH with no success, and the arial font is installed.

I don't know where this error is coming from exactly so I can't even
begin to figure out how to fix it, and I use gretl all the time these
days so it is bugging me. In fact I have a project due tomorrow.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

I deleted my configuration files, now the error message is asking for "Vera." I imagine this isn't a Gretl problem, does anyone have an idea of what it could be?

PJ

sorry about the last time I tried posting this. I should know better.
