Version: 1.4 (using KDE 4.4.2) OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages Basically, Dolphin doesn't show font previews for me. I have "fonts" checked in the preview tab (in both Dolphin and Konqueror). I have the preview button at the top of the window turned on. The fonts are well under the max file size. Instead Dolphin just shows the generic "T" or "A" font icons. I'm on Kubuntu Lucid AMD 64 using kde 4.4.2.
Cannot reproduce using KDE SC 4.4.5
Ah, it only seems to be happening via fonts:/
Ok, I confirm that :-)
confirmed on 4.6.90
Confirmed on Dolphin 1.99. This is strange.
Resetting assignee to default as per bug #305719
Confirmed using using dolphin 4.12.0 on Kubuntu.
The same problem occurs when viewing fonts: with FolderView (whereas viewing the actual file: location where the font files are stored works fine), so it seems that this is not a Dolphin issue.

why is this report still open?
Let's assume Patrick confirmed it's fixed by Kai's commit.
It's not fixed. Preview works in /usr/share/fonts but it does not when I open fonts:/ Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.15.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.56.0 Qt Version: 5.12.2
Thanks for the update; it seems I misunderstood comment #10.
Git commit 6ae36d4b5045e6bdc86fd0d26abf5bf393d65dad by Ahmad Samir. Committed on 20/07/2021 at 16:55. Pushed by ahmadsamir into branch 'master'. kio_fonts: fix the thumbnails creation by tweaking the USEntry fields - Set the fancy name, e.g. "Foo, Bold Italic", as UDS_DISPLAY_NAME - Set the actual file name, e.g. foo-bold.ttf, as UDS_NAME - Set the actual file url, e.g. /usr/share/fonts/truetype/foo-bold.ttf as UDS_URL Setting the UDS_URL fixes font thumbnail creation when using kio_fonts. And IIUC, also avoids calling get() on "font:/" urls, the files are already local; setting the UDS_URL makes all the font previews work on my system at least.
