Its too bad that all systems don't have one guaranteed font that can be used.

I'm really surprised that Windows fonts are not sizeable. I know MS and Apple
conspired to make TrueType to break Adobe's postscript monopoly. And 
(7/9)*96 = 75 (approx), so that should be noticable (going from g.textsize = 
9 
to 7).
