Hello, .........1.........2.........3.........4.........5.........6.........7 I use gnuplot and some bash-skripts on a Cygwin x86_64-Installation to generate a number of plots. Filetype is png because plenty of colleagues will look into the plots. Usually gnuplot sends the message: <====================== fontconfig: Couldn't find font. when opening font "arial", using internal non-scalable font ======================> That could be a solution if I could force gnuplot always to do so. when exporting GDFONTPATH=/cygwin/x/Windows/Fonts I can use Arial Font without error.
The Problem is that I do not understand which font is available or not. In c:\Windows\Fonts\ there is a scalable Font called "Terminal", but I get the error message: <====================== fontconfig: Couldn't find font. when opening font Terminal, trying default ======================> gnuplot then uses arial. If I run fc-list I get exactly one empty line. Since I use my skripts in productive environment I would like to have deterministic behaviour. What is chain of command between gnuplot, GD-Terminal, fontconfig and what is involved there. regards, Axel -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
