Hi Michele,
TrueType fonts are supported by FreeType and hence the OSG, there are
even true type fonts in the OpenSceneGraph/fonts directory. I can't
say why this particular font of yours is failing. Set the
OSG_NOTIFY_LEVEL env var to DEBUG and have a look at the console
output to see whether the font is being found and loaded.
Robert.
