Fresh install on OSX: unable to read font
Posted: 2008-06-21T02:57:55-07:00
Hi,
I installed ImageMagick on a fresh OSX install using sudo port install ImageMagick. (Version: ImageMagick 6.4.1 06/21/08 Q16 http://www.imagemagick.org)
Using convert i get those creepy ghostscript errors so i installed ghostscript.
(why doesnt it use freetype anyway? as port installs it!)
Still every time i try convert i get thousands of "convert: unable to read font " messages.
Any other font i tried with -font also fails.
Fonts are listed
Reinstalling with port results in the same stuff.
Now i'm very unhappy with this kind of user experience, especially because i did nothing wrong.
Whats up with this?
