OGR autostyle font mapping problem

Reported by: tamas Owned by: tamas
Priority: normal Milestone:
Component: OGR Support Version: unspecified
Severity: normal Keywords:
Cc: dmorissette

Description

Currently we cannot use font mapping with "STYLEITEM AUTO" (OGR) if the font name contains spaces. This is because we cannot include font name alias containing spaces in the fontset file. A trivial solution to this is to replace the spaces with hyphens in the OGR autostyle code.

FYI there was ticket #1908 about supporting spaces in font names, and a suggestion to use quotes to allow spaces in font names. Ticket #1908 was closed 'wontfix' because the original issue with spaces in SVG fonts is no longer relevant in 6.0, but we could reopen if necessary.

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
