The company that I work for has wingz installed on
an RS6000 running AIX 3.1.5. I would like to run
wingz on this platform and redirect the output to
my VAXstation running DECwindows on VMS 5.4;
however, when I run wingz I get the following
message:

Starting WINGZ, please wait .....
No Adobe Fonts found; Please contact System Administrator

I would guess that my VAXstation does not have the 
Adobe fonts being used by Wingz. I do have some Adobe
fonts because I use them to define fonts for other
applications that I run this way.

My system administrator has not been very helpful in
finding a solution. He has, however, run wingz from the
RS6000 to a sun workstation and had no problems.

What Adobe fonts is wingz looking for?

I have tried several combinations of the dpix and dpiy
startup options.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
