PDF open: problem with one musical font.
Hi! First post in this forum, but long time inkscape user now, even for basic things.
I have a problem. Im printing from a musical score program to pdf. I want to open that PDF in Inkscape (0.46, last version), but even the preview of the document is fine in the import dialog, when Inkscape open it, the font is not showed properly. The font is called "SToccata" and is in the windows\fonts folder properly installed, but Inkscape dont show it in the fonts menu. I tried the workaround of the faq for issues with fonts (even it says that .46 solved the problem). Beyond that, the font is embedded in the pdf. Below are some pics to ilustrate what i say, and the PDF itself http://stashbox.org/136375/Dia-de-la-bandera-Interludio-Violin-Piano-02.pdf I tryed with other musical fonts installed in my system, and same issue.
Here is the preview Inkscape shows me when i will import the PDF, all is fine with that preview: [img]http://stashbox.org/136368/Inkscape-pdf-01.jpg%5B/img]
But when i press ok, i get this mumble-rumble:

Here is how is it supposed to be displayed:

It looks as though you had to install the font on the system and that it may be embedded into the PDF file (which causes Acrobat to display it fine). I'm not sure if thre is a way to extract the font from the PDF and install it locally (maybe an option in Acrobat? I'm no longer familiar with Adobe's Acrobat program)
Well, is not a third part pdf, since im the author of it, i have the font, a truetype one, correctly installed in my system. But that´s another issue too, 0,46, says the faq, hasnt problems to dont see fonts (like happened with .43-.45) but in this case all the musical fonts are not available in inkscape.
