Can I both stretch and outline the same text?
#3
I just read Ofnuts post again, it is a better way than a regular 'stretch' path but ....

You do have to go well outside the canvas with the scale tool in path mode. http://i.imgur.com/0lQHdX0.jpg
Then path to selection for the fill and stroke path for an outline. (separate layers) http://i.imgur.com/URulOHd.jpg looking at that, I might go back and increase the character spacing a little & start again.

However, condensed fonts, apart from the usual place whatfont ..etc there is google fonts
https://fonts.google.com/?query=condensed looks like this

I do not know how ofnuts gets them but if you use
https://github.com/google/fonts/tree/master/ofl
do a search (find file button), click on a result gets you to a download.

some hints: http://i.imgur.com/ICX0JnE.jpg

Remember, put these in your Gimp profile fonts folder unless you really need to add to system fonts.
