Hi, Each time I start a Qt 5.3.2 or 5.4.0 application on OS X 10.9, I'm greeted with a list of failures on the terminal or in system.log:
QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "BanglaSangamMN" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "SinhalaSangamMN" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "TeluguSangamMN" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "STSongti-SC-Regular" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "STSongti-TC-Regular" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "BanglaMN" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "SinhalaMN" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "TeluguMN" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "BanglaSangamMN" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "SinhalaSangamMN" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "TeluguSangamMN" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "DFKaiShu-SB-Estd-BF" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "BanglaMN" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "SinhalaMN" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "TeluguMN" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "DFKaiShu-SB-Estd-BF" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "BanglaMN" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "SinhalaMN" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "TeluguMN" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "Baghdad" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "Ayuthaya" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "BanglaSangamMN" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "SinhalaSangamMN" QCoreTextFontDatabase: Failed to resolve family name for PostScript name "TeluguSangamMN" Apart from the fact that I don't see the point in warning me multiple times about the same fonts, I don't see why I'd get an error at all about fonts that 1) I don't have installed (= I uninstalled because useless to me) and 2) aren't exactly "unmissable" fonts. What's going on here, and can these messages be made to go away without side-effects? On a related note, I notice #> qtdiag | fgrep -i font FontsLocation: "Fonts" */System/Library/Fonts* Two things here: - /Library/Fonts is missing here, which should be searched first - /System/Library/Fonts should not be considered writable; /Library/Fonts can be Finally, even though it isn't very well documented, OS X does allow some customisation of the certain default fonts, and utilities like TinkerTool exist that expose this functionality. Is there a particular reason Qt ignores that setting and seems to provide hardcoded defaults (or are the system functions to get the default font names at to blame here)?
