Hi, FYI based on the documentation I could find, you are correct in assuming that the first of those three fields should be a POINT size, and not a pixel size. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glyph_Bitmap_Distribution_Format#Example In my current attempt to modify my system's cursors (decompiling "cursor.pcf.gz", making a slight change and re-compiling), bdftopcf did not complain if I replaced "-1" with "16" (my best guess). Note that I also had to edit the COPYRIGHT line which had unescaped double quotes around "glyphs" in this example, which I had to remove by hand in the BDF file in order for bdftopcf's resulting binary to include the full statement. I hope this helps! -- Stéphane Lavergne

It seems upstream already fixed this in version 1.05. Could you please check if this issue is fixed in most recent Debian package?

Please try install and test the package from Stretch. It should work fine across those distro releases, I believe - of if not, then please tell me, and I will recompile for you to test. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private

I can confirm that both bugs have been fixed in that new version. "SIZE -1 78 78" became "SIZE 31 78 78" and the double quotes around "glyphs" in the COPYRIGHT line have been doubled, which is recognized as valid as-is by bdftopcf. :) -- Stéphane Lavergne
