GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 362151
Some ()bitmap) fonts don't load properly in Inkscape
Last modified: 2018-05-22 12:23:09 UTC
Please describe the problem: The people over at #inkscape told me it was a problem with Pango, so i'll post the bugreport here. I've downloaded several fonts, like the top one from this site: http://www.dsg4.com/04/extra/bitmap/index.html. I've put them in my /usr/share/fonts folder and in programs like Sodipodi and The Gimp i can use the font like it should. However in Inkscape i can see the font in the dialog, but when i select it and apply it to the selected text, the font jumps back to the default font. There's no way i can use the downloaded font on my Inkscape files. Steps to reproduce: 1. Download a font from the url: http://www.dsg4.com/04/extra/bitmap/index.html. And put the file in the font folder. 2. Load Inkscape 3. Try to use the font on a text. Actual results: The font isn't used, instead the default font is used. Expected results: The new font is used. Does this happen every time? Yes Other information: I don't have much knowledge of fonts and graphics, so if i posted at the wrong place or didn't give the right information, i'm sorry.
