Like Pietj and Milan here, I've been messing with Gruff and running
into the font problem.


Did either of you have any luck figuring out how to do this?

I can get Magick to look at the local font file I point to via:

    gc = Magick::Draw.new

    gc.font = "#{RAILS_ROOT}/lib/fonts/ChalkboardBold.ttf"

But I can't get Gruff to do it.


It looks like we need to tweak base.rb in Gruff maybe? Here's a
snippet of that file:

    # Font used for titles, labels, etc. Works best if you provide the
full
    # path to the TTF font file.  RMagick must be built with the
Freetype
    # libraries for this to work properly.
    #
    # Tries to find Bitstream Vera (Vera.ttf) in the location
specified by
    # ENV['MAGICK_FONT_PATH']. Uses default RMagick font otherwise.
    #
    # The font= method below fulfills the role of the writer, so we
only need
    # a reader here.
    attr_reader :font

I'm not up on that lower level attr_reader stuff. Any ideas how to
override it?
