I can re-produce this issue with many other fonts in Win7 with version 0.48. One of these fonts is "TGL 0-16".

Interestingly, the drop down menu shows this font with the name "TGL 0 -16" inserting a space between the zero and the hyphen. I found that suspicious and opened the SVG file in a text editor and checked the style attribute of the text node:

font-family:TGL 0-16;-inkscape-font-specification:TGL 0-16

Note, that the font family name is not in quotes! I manually added single quotes around the font family:

font-family:'TGL 0-16';-inkscape-font-specification:'TGL 0-16'

...and opened the file in Inkscape again and voilá, now the font is properly displayed in my drawing.

Unfortunately it will be reset to defaul as soon as I click or move the text object, because the manually added quotes are being removed from the svg file by Inkscape.
