I didn't know about this kind of fonts until now, so after reading that blog post I tried the "gothic" font from here: http://featurecam.com/general/support/engrave_fonts.asp
And the font doesn't show up in Inkscape, it does in Indesign, Word and Notepad++. I can't test it in GIMP because it crahes when trying to use the text tool (probably unrelated). Is that the same behaviour you're getting?
