non-Unicode symbol fonts do not work on Windows. Bug 165665. Do we need the flag USE_PANGO_WIN32 ?
by Alvin Penner
ref : https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/165665
I believe this bug can be fixed by disabling the flag USE_PANGO_WIN32 in
line 19 of src/libnrtype/FontFactory.h. When I do this on Windows XP, I gain
about 35 new fonts. Not all of these new fonts are useable, but the most
interesting ones, such as CommercialPi, Symbol, Technic, Webdings,
Wingdings, MonoType Sorts, TechnicLite are working well, both in Inkscape
and in IE9.
This is a Windows-specific bug which hides symbol fonts, and does not
occur in Gimp 2.6 on Win XP. As far as I can tell, the Gimp source code does
not contain any analogue or equivalent of the flag USE_PANGO_WIN32.
Would there be any objection if I disable this flag, or does it serve a
specific purpose that is essential?

This is extremely awesome.

undo: writing to XML during load
by Johan Engelen
Hi all,
We have a problem with the LPE-system writing to XML *during* the load
process. When loading an SVG with path effects, you can do an undo
operation that bugs.
Upon loading a file, all effects get recalculated, because of "path_set"
being the same for initialization and changes.
Can we fix the situation by simply (re-)initializing the undo system
*after* a file has been fully loaded?
Cheers,
Johan

a great bug fix release, which will hopefully tide people over until the
upcoming 0.49. There are a ton of bug fixes in this release including
one security fix, so it is recommended that everyone currently using
0.48.3 or older upgrade tho this release.
As per custom please avoid announcing this widely until platform
