Warning in load fonts() : More than one version of regular/bold/italic font #16

Closed starlinq closed 11 years ago

starlinq commented 12 years ago

I tried to install and use the Georgia font in Ubuntu and R 2.15.1 but got a message: Warning in load fonts() : More than one version of regular/bold/italic font for Georgia. Skipping setup for this font. Finally the font has not been registered, so I cannot use it. Is there any workaround for the problem?

I've used Georgia and haven't encountered this problem before... What entries are listed when you run subset(fonttable(), FamilyName == "Georgia") ?

I put the result of the subset command in pastebin:

fonts() function shows Georgia as available font but the loadfonts() fails to load the Georgia font (it gives me: "Warning in loadfonts() : More than one version of regular/bold/italic found for Georgia. Skipping setup for this font.") so I cannot use the font for plot now, it gives me an error: unknown family 'Georgia'.

Just let me know, if you need any additional information.

Regards, VS

It looks like Georgia got imported twice somehow. I think the best bet is to reinstall extrafontdb (which clears the font database) and re-run the font import. If the problem still happens, please let me know.
