Hi guys, I guess this question was answered a million times, but I couldn't find the answer in the archives. I have a RH9 box. After compiling pango, I ran pango-viewer, and I get the list of all the font families that are installed in my box (including the fonts from corefonts.sourceforge.net) However, most of them display as different versions of Times, Courier, Helvetica, or Terminal. Symbol does not display at all. Same happens with the gimp, Abiword, and the gtk font selector. However, Openoffice works fine. Another example: I modified pango-viewer to print the font description corresponding to the selected font. Then I go to testgtk.c in the styles example, and I do: font_desc = pango_font_description_from_string("times, Medium 12"); and when I use it I get a font that looks like "times, Bold, 19". This is all very confusing. What is the problem? Can you tell me where to look at for more info, for fixes? Examples? Thank you a lot! <ADRIAN> _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
