Hi, when running with the -dshow-available-fonts option I get (among others) a list of font familes with entries like the following: family Verdana Verdana:style=Standard,Normal,obyčejné,Κανονικά,Regular,Normaali,Normál,Normale,Standaard,Normalny,Обычный,Normálne,Navadno,Arrunta family Kepler Std Kepler Std,Kepler Std Light Cn Disp:style=Light Condensed Display,Regular What do the different output formats refer to: some with a ":style=" part, some with direct font names. And in some cases I find multiple entries for a font family family Helvetica LT Std Helvetica LT Std:style=Oblique,Italic family Helvetica LT Std Helvetica LT Std,Helvetica LT Std Cond:style=Bold Condensed,Bold family Helvetica LT Std Helvetica LT Std,Helvetica LT Std Cond:style=Condensed,Regular (with many more entries in this case). And these mixes of font name conventions: family Helvetica Neue LT Std Helvetica Neue LT Std,HelveticaNeueLT Std Cn:style=77 Bold Condensed Oblique,Bold Italic I'm somewhat confused what to make out of this diverse information. I'm looking into this because I'd like to try making a better dialog for showing fonts in Frescobaldi. Thanks for any explanations Urs |
