[Scribus] phantom fonts

I mean simply what I posted a while back that the 'bad' fonts e.g from hobbes.nmsu.edu would cause a crash and I know which these are and I had corresponded with Peter Linnell about them. Now the question is, if you DELETE font characters they may be still there by virtue of being in the SLA fil

[Scribus] phantom fonts

I too have seen 'phantom' fonts. If one opens a new document and save, having used only a space character, then the phantom.sla file shows and this is correct since the space character of that font has been in fact used. Moreover, if one uses a font and deleted its characters the f

[Scribus] text object not on page

i find the reson for my crash signal #11 in SuSe 9.1. It is not the old fonts at all. On "export to pdf" It says "text object not on page" and using the 'outline' display it shows that which can be deleted with the delete key. So it exports now to pdf ../works/fonts2.pdf very interesting. Bart A

Indeed, the warning is still there on "save" or "save as" but does not appear on merely opening an existing file. I may have lost track of when this happened. Was not there a warning on BOTH opening and closing the file? It is all OK by me anyway. There IS a difference on my 9.1 box which used

[Scribus] fonts suse 9.1 and 9.2

Thinking about it over night. It seems now obvious that since SuSE 9.2 ships with default locale UTF-8 it is that which breaks fonts that were previously supported. Craiag Bradney says "feeding garbage to fontconfig" is too much. Well, it became garbage only with the system change, including th
