#18647: ImageMagick: font path is incorrect -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: jeremyhu@… | Owner: ryandesign@… Type: defect | Status: assigned Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.7.0 Keywords: | Port: ImageMagick -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Comment(by ryandesign@…): I'm happy to add a port:urw-fonts dependency to ImageMagick if that prevents people from encountering an error. I hadn't seen the error myself (except when I tried in response to this ticket), because I don't do font things with ImageMagick, and also I already have urw-fonts installed because it's a dependency of graphviz, which I always have installed. The issue in this ticket that the paths specified are nonsensical (e.g. /opt/local/lib/ImageMagick-6.4.8/config//opt/local/share/ghostscript/fonts/n021003l.pfb) seems to have been resolved upstream by now; I can no longer reproduce that. But even with urw-fonts installed, I still get the following error, so I don't think adding a urw-fonts dependency is a solution: {{{ convert: unable to read font `/opt/local/share/ghostscript/fontsx/n021003l.pfb' @ error/annotate.c/RenderFreetype/1059. convert: unable to read font `/opt/local/share/ghostscript/fontsx/n021003l.pfb' @ error/annotate.c/RenderFreetype/1059. convert: unable to read font `/opt/local/share/ghostscript/fontsx/n021003l.pfb' @ error/annotate.c/RenderFreetype/1059. }}} Looking back at [http://studio.imagemagick.org/pipermail/magick- bugs/2009-February/003174.html the thread I opened with the ImageMagick developers], it doesn't seem to have reached a conclusion. I may have forgotten to respond. It seemed to have ended with the developers saying ImageMagick should be using FontConfig if it's there, and ImageMagick in MacPorts does use FontConfig, so I still don't know why anything is trying to read these PFB fonts instead of the TrueType ones provided by Mac OS X. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/18647#comment:15> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
