Comment 29 for bug 219709

I had a .pdf image created in AI which I attempted to open in Inkscape, the font did not appear as it should even though the font was installed on the PC. Further investigation showed the TrueType Font filename, in Windows>Fonts, differed from the font referenced in the font selection dropdown in Inkscape, other fonts could be selected and showed as they should in the opened image in Inkscape. However, other fonts whose selection dropdown reference differed from the filename shown in Windows>Fonts also did not appear as they should when selected.

I opened this pdf in another program where the font did display correctly and I was able to export the image as an .SVG file. Opening the .SVG file in Inkscape still did not display the font correctly either on opening the file or selecting/reselecting the font.
