GTK+/Win32 MS Sans Serif font = warning
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 ___ gtk-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
Re: GTK+/Win32 MS Sans Serif font = warning
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.

After this I get the following warning: WARNING**: Couldn't load font MS Sans Serif 8 falling back to Sans 8 I used to get this problem using the dropline packages for MinGW, but no amount of Pango tweaking fixed it. I solved the problem by building my own libraries from source for Cygwin. Nowadays Cygwin comes with GTK+, so you could try that, or try the latest version available.
