New fonts aren't available in inkscape (Mac

Postby asymptoteell » Sat Aug 06, 2011 8:49 am

I've recently added many new fonts to my computer (It's a Mac). I've put them in the folder /System/Library/Fonts, as I was under the impression that Inkscape took fonts from that folder. But none of the new fonts are showing up in Inkscape. Is this a known bug, or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance,
Asymptoteell

Never mind. I resolved it myself. What I needed to do was put the fonts in my User Font folder instead.
