[Gimp-user] Bold versions of some fonts fail

2011-02-21 Thread John Coppens
Hello people.

At some point - I'm not clear when - something changed with my fonts
(Linux - Slackware64 13.1). Now I cannot select, for example, the bold
or italic version of DejaVu Sans. The appear as Regular.

- I tried to install the newest package for the dejavu fonts,

- ran mkfontscale

- ran mkfontdir

- Though probably unnecessary, ran fc-cache

First tried to 'reload fonts' (button in fonts dialog) in Gimp, then
tried to restart gimp entirely. (and from a terminal to check for any
messages with --verbose).

Am I missing some important step?

Forgot to mention, 'FontMatrix' shows all the variants of the DejaVu
font, including Bold, Condensed, Italic, etc.

Only thing out of the 'ordinary' is that the regular font is called
'book', not 'regular', 'normal', 'roman', as most do.

Re: [Gimp-user] Questions about EXIF data (Windows version)

2011-02-21 Thread Michael Schumacher
 Von: perkin-warbeck for...@gimpusers.com

 I'm sending tiff files to GIMP (version 2.6.7 for Windows) from a raw
 converter.  The tiff files contain a lot of EXIF data such as Fnumber,
 FocalLength, ExposureTime, ISO. and so-on.  When I save as jpeg from 
 GIMP, most of the EXIF data is discarded.  In the Save as JPEG dialog,
 the checkbox Save EXIF data (under Advaned Options is unchecked.
 It is grayed out so I cannot check it.

The Exif data is discarded when opening the TIFF files. So far, only the JPEG 
plug-in reads and saves Exif data from and to image files.

 Here are my questions: (1) Is the Windows version of GIMP packaged with
 libexif? 

Yes.

 (2) If not, is there a workaround?  

A workaround is to use a different tool - e.g. exiftool - to extract the Exif 
data from the original files and add it back to the resulting files.

A fix would be to add Exif support to more file format plug-ins (e.g. TIFF, PNG 
and possibly others).


Regards,
Michael

[Gimp-user] Text hinting problem on windows 7

2011-02-21 Thread noir-soleil
Hello.

I'm using the latest stable version of GIMP on windows 7.
The hinting using the instructions from font is not working,
only auto-hinting works (but the results looks ugly).
What may be the problem?

Thank you, Michael.  You solved my problem.  I was able to import EXIF data 
using ExifTool.

[Gimp-user] Problem with pandora script resolved

2011-02-21 Thread Leonard Evens
I had previously posted something saying I had trouble installing the
script
pandora-combine-0.9.3.scm
under gimp 2.6.11 running under Fedora 14.

To see the resolution of this problem look at

/registry.gimp.org/node/25080

which includes my statement of the problem and a solution.

It would be nice if someone made a fix to the script at its website.

In 2.6.8 from Ubuntu, 2.6.11 from source and 2.7 from git source, I
can't reproduce this problem at all.

I put pandora-combine-0.9.3.scm in ~/.gimp-2.6/scripts and it registers
without any errors, and shows up in Filters-Combine-Arrange as
Panorama.

I can only guess you have some other script or plug-in installed
that's somehow conflicting with Pandora. What other scripts and
plug-ins do you have installed locally?

I notice both you and the person who replied have gimp installed in
/usr/lib64. I wonder if there could be an issue with registering
script-fu on a 64-bit install?

Renaming script-fu-pandora-combine to script-fu-my-combine makes no
sense to me unless you have two different versions of Pandora
installed. I don't see why renaming it would make any difference.
