Some fonts (such as ‘default’ font in paragui) is coming up with all
characters being ‘0’. Somehow I suspect this is wrong…
behaviour showable by using “showfont” utility (of SDL_ttf) on
default/font.ttf in the paragui CVS - although any release will work.
incidentally “ftview 19 default/font.ttf” for example works just fine.
freetype is claiming version 9.1.3 (debian 2.2.1-3)
SDL_ttf-2.0.5
debian linux
i386 series (Celeron 733)
not sure what else matters.
Looking for any kind of suggestion at all. development on a few things is
kind of at an impass until I can get this solved somehow deep sigh
anyhoo from windows fonts, “timesi.ttf” works and “helb____.ttf” doesn’t
for instance.
TIA for any assistance and
G’day, eh?

I don’t have problems with any other lists I suspect this to be Yet
