Agreed.

I cannot reproduce that - it works just fine for me. See below.
Also, this is not what the report says - it's also talking about text
not being displayed at all.

I think you missed the important part of my message: In 1.3 you do not
specify a font path, but use font identifiers like this:
--font 'DEFAULT:0:Times'
--font 'TITLE:12:Verdana'
See the manpage for details and the following entry of the upstream
changelog (NEWS):
* fonts come through fontconfig, use the Pango font nameing scheme
-> 'Times 20' ... it is not possible to use truetype fonts
directly anymore.
HTH,
