Hi, everyone. Newbie here.
I installed GIMP OK and started to use it. I immediately ran into an issue.
There is a particular Windows 10 font I want to use, Rosewood std regular. It shows up in MS Word and Excel but not in GIMP.
I spent some time searching the interwebs, looking at various forums (fora?) but to no avail. It appeared that GIMP is supposed to grab the Windows fonts by default and use them. Mine stubbornly refuses. I found a post somewhere that "said do this do that" to load a font. Did not work.
I turned the computer off and on again. That always works. Not for me.
I tried also to register at gimpchat.com but they did not send the registration email - although the message said they did.
I registered at gimptalk.com only find it had died.
So I registered here.
Any suggestions?
