Is Gill sans supported for export? - highcharts

I have a chart with the data label font set as 'Gill sans'. However when i export the chart to png the font changes. Is Gill sans not supported for export? IE8 used.

At this moment we cannot add extra font, but please request your idea on our uservoice website highcharts.uservoice.com.

Is there a way to make text italic with Python-Fu for GIMP?

My script changes text in a text layer, but doing that changes the text from italic to normal text. Is there a way to not make it change; or to change it back afterwards?
I looked in the command browser in gimp but only found commands to change the font itself. I couldn't find a way to pass any additional formatting, but maybe I missed something.. Any ideas?
Gimp has no notion of "Italic" or "Bold" font attributes. Fonts usually have several variants that appear "italic" (such as Latin Modern Sans Oblique or Latin Modern Roman Slanted) or "bold" with various degrees (Noto Sans goes form Noto Sans Thin to Noto Sans Heavy, with intermediate Semi-bold,Bold, and Ultra-bold variants. But it's all in the name.

JSPDF how to use variable fonts

I can happily use jspdf to add fonts to a pdf. For that so far I add a font for regular, one for italic, one for bold and one for bolditalic in my case.
Now I have some fonts that do not provide these different fonts but variable ttf-fonts and I struggle to use those with JSPDF.
So far my solution goes like this:
pdf.addFileToVFS(`${fontFamily}-bold.ttf`, fontBase64Data);
pdf.addFont(`${fontFamily.ttf}-bold.ttf, fontFamily, 'bold', 700);
where I read fontBase64 data from file (which works nicely for regaulr, italic etc) and do the same with the regular and italic fonts...
For variable fonts I tried to add a font with variable font weight with above code just use the fontBase64Data as I read it from the ttf file of variable font.
However that just leaves the font regular.
To my understanding that alos makes sense as the API of addFonts seems to associate a loaded font with a font weight it represents, but does not seem to apply a font weight to the font.
Since I want to use variable fonts however I seem to need to either
set a font as variable font, so weight would be automatically applied
apply a weight to the variable font via api and then define that as bold
So far I couldn't find any of that. Am I missing sth or are variable font weights currently not supported yet by jspdf?

Font in GVedit Editor

Is it possible to change the font size of the code in in GVedit Editor?
I do not mean the font of text in created graphs, but the font size of the source code.
Copy the text from webpage or word to GVEdit, the format will not change.
But I haven't find where to config it.

textmate railscast theme and font?

where can I get the textmate rails theme and font used on Railscast?
5 seconds on google reveal that there is a link to the complete theme on the railscasts.com site itself (http://railscasts.com/about).
BAH. Found both here http://mattonrails.tumblr.com/post/210920872/inconsolata-font
font is Inconsolata monospace
Theme is also linked above
This is the link to Ryans Railscasts Theme:
_http://media.railscasts.com/resources/textmate_theme.zip
This is the link to Bitstream Vera Sans Mono Font he uses:
_http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/ttf-bitstream-vera/1.10/ttf-bitstream-vera-1.10.zip
Font-wise I would prefer DejaVu Sans Mono (it is based on Bitstream but has more characters):

I'm not sure about the theme (couldn't find a theme with the exact same colors), but it looks like it's the Menlo font with the size of about 12-14 pt. I'm using the built-in Pastels on Dark theme and it looks quite similar. You could change some of the colors to match your taste.
Monaco seems like an awesome font to use for programming. A monospace font is a must while coding since it can maintain the indentations properly.
The themes where pushed to github by Ryan

sifr3 multiple font faces in one .swf? for fonts that don't have bold or italic weights?

I have a font which only has a regular weight… I’d like to use another font as the bold weight and another as the italic weight… and have sifr use the extra fonts as a replacement based on strong and or b tags
I’ve tried embedding the multiple fonts in the .swf but only the regular weight get’s applied when sifr is activated. If I have two separate .swf font files I can the text to generate in either font but can't seem to apply the bold version to the bold text in the sentence.
Is their a smarter way to do this? using sifr3 - r436 with CS3 Flash Professional to create the font files
Okay after an hour os do googling various terms I found this
http://discuss.joyent.com/viewtopic.php?id=24567
which answers my question - I now have the whole family embedded as I need
Thanks
