On my Fedora Core 5,
gnome-thumbnail-font /mnt/tmp/Zapinfo out.png
works. So how about removoing fonts:/// prefix from the
path given to gnome-thumbnail-font?
Which platform are you using?
Could you see the font with ftview?
If you can see it with ftview, the problem comes
from nautilus. If not, the problem comes from freetype2.
