GIMP 2.x has some code that tries to come up with a good guess in case you are using the old font descriptions. This is used to interpret the parasites written by the old GIMP Dynamic Text plug-in. You could have look at that code (app/text/gimptext-xlfd.c). But I would suggest you just make yourself familiar with the X Logical Font Description (that is the old style) and the way that Pango font descriptions work. The string represensation used for fonts in Pango is explained at http://library.gnome.org/devel/pango/unstable/pango-Fonts.html#pango-font-description-from-string Sven _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
