I can try ... my memory is fuzzy. Basically, there's a setRawMode() foor QFont which is supposed to load any font requested without going through the matching algorithm. However Qt until now has decided that if the locale of the font doesn't match the current locale, it will not load it even when requested. So russian users etc. cannot use latex-xft-fonts at all. This fix might have solved this (but probably not). regards john -- Khendon's Law: If the same point is made twice by the same person, the thread is over.
