englishJust after the fork of Inkscape SVN-0.46 & SVN-0.47, the support for advanced SVG fonts management (already supported by Fontforge) was started. It’s also good to recall than a SVG print draft is in progress, and everyone is welcome to improve it.

Fontmatrix is a nice font manager with lot of informations about fonts, last SVN launched from a terminal, give font path and filename on the terminal (soon on the interface ;) ). It allow to activate/disactivate fonts in the fontconfig system for GNU/Linux.

Some other free software font tools and converter on the Fontforge project page.

Some other open source fontes.

GNU/Linux distributions already include lot of nice fonts as Déjà Vu fonts, here are some other international fonts (sometimes inlcuded in your distribution package manager):
Languagegeek contain some native North americans scripts fonts.

Omniglot contain lot of links to international fonts, here the Dongba Naxi fonts, I will make an article about them soon.Tthis is only one pictographic scripture used around the world today, from the Naxi minority of Tibet highland, in Mainland china.
