I had already enabled Freetype as instructed in the email.
So I went ahead and then changed the StandardFont to FreeSans 9 and did Force all.
Still did not work. I saved and quit. Restarted and tried again and it worked.

I don't know if FreeSans is the best font choice or not, just simply the one that I tried.

Same error here on OSX. I guess it is because we need to use the FreeType fonts instead of the default StrikeFonts.

Hello,

I am on Ubuntu 12.10 32bit.

I then open the image and proceed with loading the code and the tutorial.

I skip page 1 and "doit" on page 2 and I get this error.

Error: failed to get a symbol address: cairo_image_surface_create

As far as I can tell, I have Cairo installed on my system. I have libcairo2.
check if path to the library is correct for your OS in
CairoLibraryLoader class.
Thanks, that was the problem.

On Ubuntu 12.10, I don't have a libcairo.so, but rather a libcairo.so.2 in /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu.

I created the link /usr/lib/libcairo.so as expected by Pharo, and it works.

Now, when I get to screen 30, I enabled FreeType as instructed but I am getting an error
MNU: StrikeFont>>glyphRenderOn:

Thanks again.
