ON Mac OSX 10.8.5 Inkscape 0.48.2 does not see all fonts

Postby inkschaap » Thu Apr 17, 2014 8:49 pm

This is my setup:
Mac OSX 10.8.5
Inkscape 0.48.2 r9819 -> latest version available for Mac OSX
XQuartz 2.7.5 (xorg-server 1.14.4) -> latest version available for Mac OSX

In Text -> Text and Font i can not see some fonts, I noticed that for font name AppleCasula
I have locate it in Library/Fonts/AppleCasula.dfont

On wiki it it said
http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php ... _the_fonts
"This issue is fixed in version 0.46. For older versions, the issue comes from Pango (the library Inkscape uses to manage fonts). Pango does not handle fonts in the .dfont format and Microsoft Font Suitcases."

So I don not understand why is it not working then ?
Is this error again introducer for never version ?
Or it was never even fixed ?
Or I need to put some settings somewhere ?

Any help is welcomed.

Thanks
