Just got fonts showing in my Linux build, but solution was pretty strange. So... first of all fonts wasn't loading so i used real path. Still not showing. Then i commented out all 'Import' lines and i got it working. First i need to compile with 'Import' lines uncommented to even get it to compile and fonts are not working. Then i comment out those lines and it's starts working and compiles. It's not problem, but i am kind of curious why this is happening.

Operating system is Linux Mint 17.1 32bit

For freetype font support, you can :

Import BRL.FreeTypeFont

DrawText is not very efficient, but it generally works okay :-)

But is there problem to going this way what i do now? I don't see anything differing from windows build, but building is just strange. :o

Edit: And what do you mean with 'generally'
