This is THE FIX for the Rumba 132 Screen width font problem. Now why can't Rumba list this in their documentaton ?
Thanks to Peter for the information. The font is available at:

I just recently got TN3270, and had the same problem. They recommended the
Andale Mono, which I picked up from M$ (free). It saved TN3270, but I don't
know how well it will do with Rumba. Worth a try.
