Sure :-) On Mon, Mar 15, 2010 at 6:27 PM, Vincent Fourmond <fourm...@debian.org> wrote: > I don't know who's to blame: how comes helvetica doesn't show up in > fontconfig ? gs-fonts are installed, which is where it should be coming, > shouldn't it ? Maybe you need to blame me? :-) >From [1] and from [2] we thought that by distributing an "empty" type.xml, ImageMagick would be able to use the system fonts. [1] http://bugs.debian.org/396420 [2] http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=15355 It seems that we didn't saw that ImageMagick was already using the system fonts PLUS the ghostscript ones (by explicitly including them in type.xml) [it could be true that on 2006 ImageMagick didn't had support for fontconfig, but now it has and it reads the system fonts] So I was wrong in understanding that ImageMagick wasn't reading the fonts now. One thing that I don't understand however (and if somebody knows why, I would be grateful for an explanation) is why fontconfig/imagemagick doesn't see the ghostscripts fonts (and why it's necessary to explicitly include them in type.xml). But well, from what I see, it's just necessary a new upload reverting the patch. Agreed on this? Thank you very much! And sorry for the mess.
