I'm a new user to GIMP. I have been thru Akkana Peck's book.
I have used preferences to remove the reference to the Windows Font Folder
and inserted my own Font Folder.
GIMP sees my Font Folder but still picks up Windows Fonts. Is there a way to
eliminate Windows Fonts from being seen by GIMP?
I took out all font folders using the preferences dialog and
sometimes GIMP will hang for a long time looking for fonts.
Weird!

I installed a new font in C:\Windows\Fonts. Loaded GIMP up and it found the
new font and was able to use it. I made some changes to the font and
installed the new TTF file into C:\Windows\Fonts. I reloaded GIMP, but it is
not detecting the changed font. There does not seem to be a .fonts.cache-1

It will depend on your OS, Linux, MAC, Win, etc but if you follow the
standard method of installing fonts for your computer, GIMP should
recognize them. Might have to reboot, not sure.

Simply put them into one of the font folders shown in GIMP's preferences or
add folders there if there are fonts in a different place already.

Thanks for the previous messages.
Fonts that showed up in my font list but showed not available were in a
fonts.dir file in the directory but not actually in the directory. I
removed the offending lines from the fonts.dir file, and all is well (in

In addition, I have many fonts that display in my selector that when I

Thanks again.

Yes, with 1.3 you need the tool options even more than you did with

Fonts aren't quite as intuitive (or maybe we're both just set in our
ways) as in GIMP-1.2.x, but here's how it works:
1. Double click on the text tool in the toolbox. This will give you
the tool's own dialog box, where you can set the font, the size, the

There are a number of font repositories on the web where you can

your best bet is to do a search for something like free fonts

Yes. You can tell your X font server where your bitmap fonts live by
