Re: png terminal : font bug on windows binaries 4.5

[Tatsuro M. <tma...@ya...>]

Hello

Sorry for my late reply.

The error seems to come from detecting binary/etc/fonts/fonts.conf

In the folder of binary, can you find  etc/fonts/fonts.conf?
If the file located correctly, it should work correct.

If you do not find it, it is my packaging error.  Quick fix is to copy binary/etc/fonts/fonts.conf of
4.4rc1, from 20091205 to corresponding directry.

If etc/fonts/fonts.conf exists, I cannot figure out the cause.
In that case, please try to set environmental variable 'FONTCONFIG_PATH'
for exaple
set FONTCONFIG_PATH=c:\Program Files\gp45-winbin\gnuplot\binary\etc\fonts
or in the control panel.
