Problem with Hebrew font.

Postby Swedish Berserk » Thu Oct 06, 2011 7:31 pm

Hello! I downloaded this free font yesterday: http://www.dafont.com/bn3rd-place.font

I installed it successfully in Ubuntu 10.04 but when i tried to use it in Inkscape the font was in the list but as soon as i tried writing with it it came up as "font not found on system" can someone help me with this? Maybe somenone can try it on their computer and see if it works there?

Thanks in advance. :)

Font name: "BN 3rd Place"

That's bug #212812 in Inkscape: “Cannot select fonts with names containing a <number><letter> substring”

You could edit the font name of the TTF file with fontforge if you really need the font (and the license permits ;) ).
