I'm having a problem with fonts under a new build of Fontconfig 2.1. First a little background information and then on to my question at the bottom of this post. I recently built 2 versions of an application and GTK+ 2.2. The first build was without components of Fontconfig 2.1 and the second build was with. To illustrate the components of each build, here is a directory listing of GTK+ 2.2's lib/pkgconfig directory for each build: without Fontconfig 2.1: chelsea:/opt/gtk2/lib/pkgconfig>£ ll total 40 drwxr-xr-x 2 root other 512 Jan 8 21:50 . drwxr-xr-x 7 root other 2048 Jan 5 21:36 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 249 Jan 4 21:35 atk.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 245 Jan 7 20:43 fontconfig.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 311 Jan 4 22:19 gdk-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 272 Jan 4 22:19 gdk-pixbuf-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 285 Jan 4 22:18 gdk-pixbuf-xlib-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 311 Jan 4 22:19 gdk-x11-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 342 Jan 4 21:07 glib-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 273 Jan 4 21:07 gmodule-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 244 Jan 4 21:07 gobject-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 238 Jan 4 21:07 gthread-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 335 Jan 4 22:19 gtk+-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 335 Jan 4 22:19 gtk+-x11-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 253 Jan 5 21:36 gtkspell-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 306 Jan 4 23:10 libxml-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 303 Jan 4 21:28 pango.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 283 Jan 4 21:28 pangox.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 490 Jan 8 21:50 xft.pc with Fontconfig 2.1: chelsea:/opt/gtk2/lib/pkgconfig>£ ll /opt/gtk.Xft/lib/pkgconfig total 44 drwxr-xr-x 2 root other 512 Jan 9 11:49 . drwxr-xr-x 7 root other 2048 Jan 9 11:49 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 249 Jan 8 23:56 atk.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 245 Jan 7 20:43 fontconfig.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 320 Jan 9 00:49 gdk-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 272 Jan 9 00:49 gdk-pixbuf-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 285 Jan 9 00:48 gdk-pixbuf-xlib-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 320 Jan 9 00:49 gdk-x11-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 341 Jan 8 22:42 glib-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 272 Jan 8 22:42 gmodule-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 243 Jan 8 22:42 gobject-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 237 Jan 8 22:42 gthread-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 335 Jan 9 00:49 gtk+-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 335 Jan 9 00:49 gtk+-x11-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 253 Jan 9 01:43 gtkspell-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 306 Jan 9 11:49 libxml-2.0.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 303 Jan 8 23:50 pango.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 347 Jan 8 23:50 pangoft2.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 283 Jan 8 23:50 pangox.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 335 Jan 8 23:50 pangoxft.pc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 490 Jan 8 21:50 xft.pc The problem I'm having is font related. I have a number of high quality type 1 postscript fonts on this machine. When I use the application with the non-Xft build of GTK+ all of my fonts appear in the font selection process of that application. When I use the Xft-enabled build of GTK+, I only have a minimal set of non-postscript fonts to choose from in the selection process. I have all the latest X windows and CDE patches on this Solaris 8 machine. If possible, would you be able to shed some light on possible solutions to this font problem? Thanks. Rob
