(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***) Package: kcmfonts Version: 2.0 (using KDE 2.9.2 CVS/CVSup/Snapshot) Severity: normal Installed from: Compiled sources Compiler: gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-85) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.4.9-21 OS/Compiler notes: Hi ! I am using the newest KDE form cvs. It looks great but I have some font issues. I'm using Red Hat 7.1 XFree86 4.1.0 and Qt 3.0.2 but I don't have iso8859-1 fonts installed (only iso 8859-2). I'm trying to use helvetica font (in fact: any font) but all is displayed using fixed width font. Example: http://krzysztof.kosz.fm.interia.pl/snapshot2.png Looking more at this issue I discovered that installing iso8859-1 font package resolves this issue: iso8859-2 are displayed corretly (but these additional fonts broke down font displaying in my paralel kde 2.2.2 so this isn't satisfying solution). regards Krzysztof Kosz I know about bug #25924 but that was for KDE 2.2.1 and now we have almost 3.0 which is different. (Submitted via bugs.kde.org) (Called from KBugReport dialog. Fields KDE Version manually changed)
The font in the screenshot looks like Helvetica to me but you say it is fixed width. Did I misunderstand ? Rik
