Font_FontMgr, warning: unable to find font #1146

Closed alinelena closed 2 years ago

alinelena commented 2 years ago

trying to use a font like this fails to load it. 

Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file: No such file: (null)
Font_FontMgr, warning: unable to find font './Font_Awesome_6_Brands-Regular-400.otf' [regular]; 'DejaVu Sans' [aspects: regular,bold,italic,bold-italic] [paths: /usr/share/fonts/truetype/DejaVuSans.ttf;/usr/share/fonts/truetype/DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf;/usr/share/fonts/truetype/DejaVuSans-Oblique.ttf;/usr/share/fonts/truetype/DejaVuSans-BoldOblique.ttf] is used instead

is not a path or a permissions issue since i copy the font in the current place. also openscad and lualatex have no issue using it.

test.tar.gz

cadquery version 2.2.0b1 and fontconfig is 2.14.0

You want to specify the font path (thus not name), so try using the fontPath parameter.

See the docs: https://cadquery.readthedocs.io/en/latest/classreference.html#cadquery.Workplane.text

first fontPath containing absolute path to the font ( filename included) worked. this is some confusing but worked.

@alinelena works for me, check the preferences in CQ-editor
