05:53 < Leolo> TONY!!!!! 05:56 < Leolo> Imager::Font->new fails to load TTF files if Truetype isn't enabled 05:56 < Leolo> even though freetype *is* enabled

Because of my @priority = qw(t1 tt ft2 ifs); tt is checked first. Because it can handle TTF, it falls through to the "is driver installed" section. Where it fails. Maybe the check should be made for both file type and driver installation. Build a list of all file types that don't have a driver installed. If no drivers are installed complain, using the list to show what should be installed. I'll see if I can't work on a patch soon.
