Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:
1. Install `gnome-font-viewer`
2. Download TTF font (for example Symbol from 
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/IamDH4/ttf-wps-fonts/master/symbol.ttf )
3. Try to open downloaded font with `gnome-font-viewer symbol.ttf`

Actual results:
GNOME Font Viewer shows blank white window (see screenshot). Terminal output is 
empty, .xsession-errors is clean.

Expected results:
GNOME Font Viewer shows font preview.

Note: the font file is not damaged, it opens normally with `mate-font-
viewer`.
