Font display problem

[piedra]

Hi,

I’m using ROOT 6.02/05. When I do

root -l fonts.C

with the simple ROOT macro below and save to pdf, the text “QWERTY” appears in the display with a much larger font, even if it appears correct when I open the pdf file. Is there any simple way to fix the display?

Thanks,
Jonatan

void fonts()
{
  TH1F* dummy = new TH1F("dummy", "dummy", 100, 0, 100);

  TCanvas* c1 = new TCanvas("c1", "c1");

  dummy->Draw();

  TLatex* tl = new TLatex(0.3, 0.3, "QWERTY");

  tl->SetNDC(kTRUE);
  tl->SetTextFont(61);
  tl->SetTextSize(0.05);

  tl->Draw("same");

  c1->SaveAs("fonts.pdf");
}

seems to me it is fine.

void fonts()
{
   TH1F* dummy = new TH1F("dummy", "dummy", 100, 0, 100);

   TCanvas* c1 = new TCanvas("c1", "c1");

   dummy->Draw();

   TLatex* tl = new TLatex(0.3, 0.3, "QWERTY");

   tl->SetNDC(kTRUE);
   tl->SetTextFont(61);
   tl->SetTextSize(0.05);

   tl->Draw();

   TLine *line = new TLine(14.,0.26,55.,0.26);
   line->SetLineColor(kRed);
   line->Draw();
   line = new TLine(14.,0.31,55.,0.31);
   line->Draw();
   line->SetLineColor(kRed);

   c1->SaveAs("fonts.pdf");
}

This is what I get saving to pdf,

and this is what I get when I don’t save to pdf,

Best,

Oops yes … that’s really big ! …
I see you are using 6.02
I am using 6.05
can you try a more recent version ?

The ROOT version that I use comes with the CMSSW package, and the latest that I’ve found is 6.02/10.

If by ROOT 6.05 this display feature disappears, I guess I can wait.

Thanks!
