| Summary | 0002754: Use only user-configured font paths | ||||
| Description | One of the wonderful feature that Scribus has is the capability to have additional font paths. I wonder if it is possible to insist that Scribus look for fonts only in a specific folder(s) and not elsewhere? It would be better if this feature was specific to the document rather than a default setting for Scribus that one has to change before loading each document. | ||||
| Additional Information | Edit->Preferences->Fonts->Additional Paths lists only "Additional Paths" instead of all the font paths it looks for. Instead if the menu shows all the paths that it looks into, we can then selectively choose the ones we like to keep and delete ones that we would like to avoid. If this "font path preference" was for a document, rather than for Scribus as a whole, it would be all the more better. | ||||

This seems like a reasonable enough idea. It probably wouldn't be too do either, it's just a matter of someone finding the time. I'm not likely to in the near future, but others might be interested. |

When collect for output is used (eg at the end of a project) the fonts go in the same folder. An option to add the document folder automatically would fit nicely with the "Collect for output" functionality |
