unable to export text in wmf

[Pierre Muckensturm]

Aloha,
I've used to export symbol I create into wmf files (enhanced metafiles with wmf extension). But in 0.47, I can't. I draw my symbol, with text, I save as with emf type, put a name like "test.wmf", and then validate. But the file is test.emf.
If I choose wmf type, I got an error which crash the saving process :

UniConvertor failed:
I can't find font Arial Narrow. I'll use Slim instead
I can't find font Slim. I'll use Slim instead

Does anyone have a clue ? Does this bug have been reported ? Fixed ?

Thanks in advance

- Which Windows version do you use?
- Could you attach the SVG file used for your test?
- Does the error when exporting to WMF still occur after upgrading to the current release version Inkscape 0.48?

(Note: Inkscape 0.48 on Windows includes an updated version of UniConvertor (1.1.5) which is used for WMF, PLT and sK1 exports)

Same issue as
Bug #430432 “Crash when Save As filetype WMF”:
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/430432>

According to comment #9 in
Bug #516178 “Python.exe hangs on creating .wmf files”:
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/516178>
the text issue (UniConvertor fails to handle text objects) is solved in the current version of UniConvertor (1.1.5) which ships with Inkscape 0.48.

Indeed, the 0.48 solve the problem.

The bug could be considered as closed.
Thanks for your help.
