[reportlab-users] Verdana and TTF error

[Ulrich Wisser]

Hi,

as was suggested earlier in the list I installed the VERDANA.TTF file on 
my Linux box. The file is found, but when I try to register the font 
like this

     pdfmetrics.registerFont(TTFont('Verdana', 'VERDANA.TTF'))

I get an error message (please find it below).

What is wrong with the font?


Thanks from sunny Stockholm
