My version of unifont has a family name of ''fixed''. Are you sure yours isn''t getting lost among the other fixeds?

It only picked up 10646-1 and ISO-8859-1 encodings. Fine that it skipped other 8bit encodings as 10646-1 covers them, but why not ISO-8859-1 too then? And it skipped some fonts completely (some Asian fonts and ISO-10646-1-only unifont). -- __("< Marcin Kowalczyk \__/ qrczak@knm.org.pl ^^ http://qrnik.knm.org.pl/~qrczak/
Hello. I would like to know how fontconfig decides which bitmap fonts
to exclude, and how to let it provide some fonts which are unavailable.
For example there is unifont.pcf.gz available via fontserver and
present in fontconfig''s <dir> and it doesn''t appear on
font lists of
applications using fontconfig. But some other bitmap fonts do appear,
e.g. Times and Fixed.
