let you know how it goes.
Best.

Well, it looks like fontconfig is installed in on-rev, but neither
/home//.fonts or /home//.local/share/fonts are being updated
automatically. I tried to run fc-cache -f -v /home//.fonts and the
font is indeed found, but I don't think I have all the required support
directories, so there is no wri
Sure, i'll dig up a font file and try.

"start using font file.." is the first option that I tried, but
unfortunately it returns "can't load font file"...
The ttf file is on the server next to my script, and I have also
tried with the full absolute path for that ttf file.
Could you please make a test on your own on-rev account with any

My apologies.. Had a brain fritz, it should be "start using font file.."
load url would just load whatever url into cache and not font it up.

When using
load font file "nameofyourfont.ttf"
the result contains
Handler: can't find handler (file)
It looks like "load" is accepted only in the form "load URL"...

Hmm. Not sure what to do about loading a fontfile then. Out of curiosity,
what is the error?

Hi Mike,
Thanks for your reply.
Yes, I managed to set the textfont of a btn or fld to one of the fonts
available in the fontnames, but I still can't figure how to use any
other ttf font...
load font file "nameofyourfont.ttf" -> returns an error
I tried load URL "nameofyourfont.ttf", it works, but

Actually no : I want to layout text, images, and graphics

You are displaying field and exporting from a browser window correct?

Hello
Thanks for the reply, but that's not what I need.
For instance, here's what I want to do :
create field
put "my text" into fld 1
set the textfont of fld 1 to "myfont.ttf'
export snapshot from fld 1 to file "File1.png" as PNG
Therefore I need to "load" ttf fonts somehow.

LC server generates html code to display text. so you need to use
inline CSS, external CSS to generate the text you want using HTML

Hello list
How can I load ttf font files with LC server, at least version 7.1
available on my on-rev account ?
Neither "revFontLoad" nor "start using font file" seem to work...
And the list of available fonts returned by "the fontNames" is quite
limited...
Thanks in advance.
