Unix Fonts Group: 8.5a0 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Neil Madden (tallniel) Assigned to: Jeffrey Hobbs (hobbs) Summary: Missing "Times" and "Helvetica" fonts when xft support on Initial Comment: Just checked out the latest tk from CVS. After configuring and installing with XFT Anti-Aliased font support turned on: ./configure --enable-xft make make install "font families" shows no "Helvetica" or "Times" fonts being available - these are supposed to be guaranteed by Tk. % info patch 8.5a0 % parray tcl_platform tcl_platform(byteOrder) = littleEndian tcl_platform(machine) = i686 tcl_platform(os) = Linux tcl_platform(osVersion) = 2.4.19-4GB tcl_platform(platform) = unix tcl_platform(user) = neil tcl_platform(wordSize) = 4 % join [lsort [font families]] \n Adobe Courier Adobe Helvetica Adobe New Century Schoolbook Adobe Times Adobe Utopia Arabic Newspaper B&H Lucida B&H LucidaBright B&H LucidaTypewriter Bitstream Charter Bitstream Terminal Century Schoolbook L Courier Courier 10 Pitch Cursor DEC Terminal Dingbats ETL Fixed East Syriac Adiabene East Syriac Ctesiphon Estrangelo Antioch Estrangelo Edessa Estrangelo Midyat Estrangelo Nisibin Estrangelo Nisibin Outline Estrangelo Quenneshrin Estrangelo Talada Estrangelo TurAbdin Goha-Tibeb Zemen Led Fixed Luxi Mono Luxi Sans Luxi Serif MUTT ClearlyU Alternate Glyphs Wide MUTT ClearlyU Wide Misc Fixed Misc Fixed Wide Nimbus Mono L Nimbus Roman No9 L Nimbus Sans L Schumacher Clean Serto Batnan Serto Jerusalem Serto Jerusalem Outline Serto Kharput Serto Malankara Serto Mardin Serto Urhoy Sony Fixed Standard Symbols L URW Bookman L URW Chancery L URW Gothic L URW Palladio L Utopia console8x16.pcf console8x8.pcf ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Joe English (jenglish) Date: 2003-06-05 19:19 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=68433 Addendum: the above report was on SuSE 8.1. Mandrake 9.1 and Debian "testing" (circa May 2003) both have "Times" fonts. Red Hat 8.0 does not; [font actual {Times 12}] returns {Nimbus Roman No9 L} instead. (I'd expect that's what you'd get on SuSE as well.) At any rate, /etc/fonts/fonts.conf _should_ have substitutions for Times, Helvetica, and Courier; so if Tk requests any of these it won't fail. What does [font actual {Times 12} return on your machine? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Neil Madden (tallniel) Date: 2003-06-05 17:20 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=102050 For comparison, here is the font list returned on the same system with a non-xft-enabled wish (quite different): % join [lsort [font families]] \n bitstream charter caption century schoolbook l charter clean clearlyu clearlyu alternate glyphs clearlyu arabic clearlyu arabic extra clearlyu devanagari clearlyu devangari extra clearlyu ligature clearlyu pua courier cursor dingbats east syriac adiabene east syriac ctesiphon estrangelo antioch estrangelo edessa estrangelo midyat estrangelo nisibin estrangelo nisibin outline estrangelo quenneshrin estrangelo talada estrangelo turabdin fangsong ti fixed goha tibeb zemen gothic helvetica ledfixed lucida lucidabright lucidasans lucidatypewriter luxi mono luxi sans luxi serif mincho new century schoolbook newspaper nil nimbus mono l nimbus roman no9 l nimbus sans l open look cursor open look glyph phonetic proof serto batnan serto jerusalem serto jerusalem outline serto kharput serto malankara serto mardin serto urhoy song ti standard symbols l symbol teletext terminal times unifont urw bookman l urw chancery l urw gothic l urw palladio l utopia ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=112997&aid=749889&group_id=12997 |
