Thanks for helping with all my other questions, heres another one... I would like to use two different font sizes for labeling passages, ideally in the same font-type. Is it possible to do this in therion? I have tried a few things... I have been using the "label" point symbol for these labels. The thbook suggests that the size of point symbols can be altered with "-scale s" however this doesn't seem to do anything to labels, so presumably it only works for certain point symbols? I tried using the line symbol for labels, but I would like to make the labels horizontal, and even if the line appears horizontal in the Map Editor, it doesnt end up horizontal in the final map (presumably it gets morphed with the passage?). I then tried to use the "remark" point symbol, and this successfully produces a small font size, however, whislt I figured out how to stop it being italic (-text "<rm>Passage Name") it seems to be in a different font type to the other labels produced by the "label" point symbol. Any ideas please? Thanks! Jenny

Well - it does work in the case of line label, but it does not in the case of point label. Thanks for pointing out - it is a bug.

You should use <ss> instead (<ss> means sans serif). <rm> means roman - it is a serif font. This should solve your problem for a while. We will try to fix it in the next release. Regards, S.
