I own Adobe FontFolio 8.0 and have strange problems with Minion font family. Those fonts render correctly with GIMP and Scribus, but not Inkscape.
Are you observing the various font style issues (e.g. bugs 904962 and 1448618)? I only have the Minion styles that come with Acrobat (regular, italic, bold, and bold italic), but they seem to work fine. On the other hand, fonts that contain "special" styles; including Jaja, Gill Sans MT Pro, and DejaVu Sans, don't behave properly.
Hmmm.. "Behave properly"?! That varies inside Inkscape itself, therefore I consider this to be Inkscape bug...
Agreed, I should have said Inkscape doesn't behave properly. For example with Gill Sans if I select the Medium style the font-weight gets set to bold. Similarly, if I select the Book style Condensed actually gets used. In my case, using the toolbar has the same, incorrect, effect as using the font dialog. Sorry I wasn't more clear earlier.

Using Font selector dialog brings the mess! Fonts are listed there too. First to appear is "Jaja" with numerous faces in the right positioned selector box. Bold face appears, what, about 10-15 times but doesn't change a thing when being clicked on. The same about Medium, Book, Light, Black, and so on. Something is deffinitely wrong here...
That's pretty much exactly what I see too.
Best,
