Q: If anyone is getting one of these:
- ** WARNING **: Couldn't load font "MS Sans Serif 8" falling back to "Sans 8"
- ** ERROR **: file shape.c line 75: assertion failed: (glyphs->num_glyphs > 0) or any other warning or error
message regarding fonts/glyphs
A: the fix is to open your C:\Program Files\Shared Files\Gtk\2.0\etc\gtk-2.0\gtkrc and to add
this:
style "user-font"
{
font_name="Arial"
}
widget_class "*" style "user-font"
This forces GTK+ to use a compatible font (Arial) and reportedly fixes both the aforementioned problems,
and probably others too...
