Description Unknown 2002-05-08 11:13:59 UTC 
I am experiencing the following problem for some TrueType fonts.

The "B" button and CTRL-B work as expected to explicitly bold / unbold selected
text.  However, when I go to edit a paragraph style and select the same font,
"Bold" is not an option for the typeface field.  I can type "Bold" into the text
box for that field, and it displays correctly in the preview pane, but the
setting does not seem to be saved when I close the dialog.

I have X configured to use TrueType fonts with xfstt, and it may be only those
fonts for which this is a problem.

I have the same problem. Running Linux Mandrake 8.2.
It is very annoying - there  seems to be NO way to change a style to
be bold!

Importing documents from SO52 with bold styles works fine, but if I
modify
the style and just VIEWS the 'Font' tab, the boldness disappears
forever.

I would very much like a quick fix or a workaround for this bug,
beacurse I need this functionality (bold styles) on my 300 pages
book written in StarOffice.

This must be a duplicate of issue 4366, becaurse
the same workaround works (remove pspfontcache files).

Can you confirm that this issue is also caused by issue 4366?

I think so

should be fixed in the next release.

As mentioned on the qa dev list on March 5th I will close all resolved duplicate
issues. Please see this posting for details. First step in IssueZilla is
unfortunately to set them to verified.
