Hi, when running with the -dshow-available-fonts option I get (among others) a list of font familes with entries like the following:

family Verdana
 
Verdana:style=Standard,Normal,obyčejné,Κανονικά,Regular,Normaali,Normál,Normale,Standaard,Normalny,Обычный,Normálne,Navadno,Arrunta
family Kepler Std
 Kepler Std,Kepler Std Light Cn Disp:style=Light Condensed Display,Regular

What do the different output formats refer to: some with a ":style=" part, some with direct font names.

And in some cases I find multiple entries for a font family

family Helvetica LT Std
 Helvetica LT Std:style=Oblique,Italic
family Helvetica LT Std
 Helvetica LT Std,Helvetica LT Std Cond:style=Bold Condensed,Bold
family Helvetica LT Std
 Helvetica LT Std,Helvetica LT Std Cond:style=Condensed,Regular

(with many more entries in this case).

And these mixes of font name conventions:

family Helvetica Neue LT Std
 Helvetica Neue LT Std,HelveticaNeueLT Std Cn:style=77 Bold Condensed 
Oblique,Bold Italic

I'm somewhat confused what to make out of this diverse information.

I'm looking into this because I'd like to try making a better dialog for showing fonts in Frescobaldi.

Thanks for any explanations Urs
