Re: GTK+/Win32 MS Sans Serif font => warning

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi
I read this on the The Gimp Windows FAQ (http://www2.arnes.si/~sopjsimo/gimp/faq.html)
" I installed Gimp 2.0 on Windows 9x/ME or NT 4, and I'm getting a lot of messages saying ** (gimp-2.0.exe:4294830849): WARNING **: Couldn't load font "MS Sans Serif 8" falling back to "Sans 8". What should I do?
-You have two options:
* Go to Control Panel->Display properties->Apperance tab, and set all fonts to Tahoma (or any other TrueType font).
* Uninstall GTK+ 2.2.4, then re-install it without the GTK-Wimp component."

Hi,

I'm using GTK+ on Win32.
I changed the font on my WinXP system to MS Sans Serif.
After this I get the following warning:

WARNING**: Couldn't load font "MS Sans Serif 8" falling back to "Sans 8"

I tried to make some investigation and found the the "MS Sans Serif" is not a TrueType font, it has the filename extension '.fon'

I could imagine that GTK+ doesn't support this fonttype, but I haven't come across documentation saying so.

Could someone enlighten me about this cosmetic 'problem'.

Best regards
Egon Andersen
