xfig fonts

[Kevin J. Cummings]

Hi Folks,
	I use xfig to create some figures (actually, team rosters for 
volleyball tournaments).  I layed out the lines a long time ago, and I 
fill in name with Text mode.  If a name doesn't fit, I usually decrease 
the text fontsize until it does.  Since RH9, I started to notice that 
the text being displayed doesn't actually change size on the screen 
unless I change it by at least 4 point sizes.  This is annoying since I 
can't tell which if the four settings is the one I need to use.  I think 
that this is some kind of a font scaling issue, but I'm not sure where 
to look.
	I'm trying to use the NewCenturySchlbk-BOLD font at 24 pts.
	But, I don't see any change until I reduce the size to 20 pts.
	But (again), I do see the result when I print the file!

	FC2 (fully updated)
	xfig 3.2.4
	nvidia 6106 xorg driver
	GeForce2 MX400 (Mad Dog Champion) AGP video card

	what I think are pertenant excerpts from my config files:
xorg.conf:
         FontPath     "unix/:7100"

         Load  "type1"
         Load  "freetype"

xfs config file:
catalogue = /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled,
         /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled,
         /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled,
         /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc,
         /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1,
         /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo,
         /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID,
         /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/local,
         /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/latin2/Type1,
         /usr/share/fonts/default/TrueType,
         /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1,
         /usr/share/AbiSuite/fonts,
         /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/msttcorefonts,
         /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/ttf,
         /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF

All ideas gratefully accepted!
