Hello Bud,

Check that your TTF font files are in lower case. e.g. ARIALN.TTF for Arial 
Narrow should be renamed arialn.ttf. It's odd to see file name case sensitivity 
on Windows, but this one caught me out when first using Mapnik.

Regards,
Warren

Subject: [Mapnik-users] TTF Fonts

The noob is back for his second question of the week. ;-)

I've been experimenting with alternative fonts to the DejaVu set. After dumping 
TTF files in the correct folder (lib/mapnik/fonts), I've noticed that some 
fonts get recognised and others not. Stratgely, I even have one font which 
works on one PC but not another! Are there any special conditions or limits for 
the TTF font support in Mapnik? I'm running on a Windows 7 platform.

Cheers,
/Bud
