Abstract
Conventional quantization of two-dimensional diffeomorphism and Weyl invariant theories sacrifices the latter symmetry to anomalies, while maintaining the former. When alternatively Weyl invariance is preserved by abandoning diffeomorphism invariance, we find that some invariance against coordinate redefinition remains: one can still perform at will transformations possessing a constant Jacobian. The alternate approach enjoys as much ``gauge'' symmetry as the conventional formulation.
