When I tried that - it did not work, I still received double embolding. I will try again - perhaps I did not have the syntax perfect. I'm pretty sure that is exactly what I tried (amongst other things). If it works, I'll close the fedora RFE and report back. The issue I'm trying to deal with is font vendors that use a different family name for each face - IE LucidaMonoEFOP-Roman LucidaMonoEFOP-Bold LucidaMonoEFOP-RomanItalic etc One solution is of course to edit the fonts so they are in the same family. The problem is I'm working on a project that is suppose to "be like iTunes but for fonts" (fonts can be previewed, and when purchased - installed for use), and changing the font from how the vendor distributes it is not acceptable, the font store can not do that.
