Description Dik Takken 2004-06-11 13:05:57 UTC 
Version:           1.3.1 (using KDE KDE 3.2.2)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
OS:                Linux

The font listing on the toolbar of KWord shows more available fonts than the font list in the < Format -> Font > menu. I guess it's the bitmap fonts that are shown in the toolbar listing, but they are not present in the Font dialog. When I do select a bitmap font like 'terminal' or 'fixed', they seem to be substituted with a sans-serif Type1 font as soon as I try to use it.
Comment 1 Nicolas Goutte 2004-06-14 09:27:36 UTC 
Bitmap fonts are not supported by KOffice, as they do not give enough information for WYSIWYG. However the toolbar widget does not allow to restrict the fonts shown.

Have a nice day!

Then this is a kdelibs issue.
Comment 3 Christoph Feck 2011-07-26 11:57:54 UTC 
Indeed. KFontAction and KFontComboBox miss a way to filter the list, as is possible in KFontChooser.
Comment 4 Christoph Feck 2011-08-06 00:24:52 UTC 
Actually, KFontAction has a constructor taking a "fontListCriteria" argument, so it could filter out the bitmap fonts the same as the font dialog. I don't know if this is still a problem in Calligra/Words, so I am reassigning back for inspection.

If Calligra uses KFontComboBox, I can add a setFontListCriteria(), so that it can filter not only by fixed fonts, but also by bitmap fonts.

we already ask for SmoothScalableFonts
Comment 6 Camilla Boemann 2011-08-06 16:18:40 UTC 
and seeing how old the bug i'd say it's fixed
Comment 7 Christoph Feck 2012-09-11 19:35:38 UTC 
Not fixed, but newly reported.
