Looked at iFrame to see if i could approach it from a different direction. Gimp may have some extended help files at their sites. I did not think there were the same packages on Mac. Only mentioned Gucharmap as an example of things tried which worked.
Some of the plug-ins for Linux have been merged into Universe packages in the repositories. There was a direct download site which had extensions or plug-ins like 'Liquid'. Might be worth a look into the Gimp preference settings as well for languages, code (Unicode or other) and what is shown as default startup panels.Ī brief search of Gimp for Mac brings up a number of Sourceforge sites and Mac support sites.Įven if none of this helps I'd add the Gimp-Print (Gutenprint for Gimp) for Mac I also have been able to copy directly from the 'Gucharmap'character map into the compose panel text box and from the Panel app as well using all sorts of accents, hangers and added strokes, hieroglyphics, Ancient Greek, Hebrew, Latin and some oddball pictographic stuff.
There's also some add-ons (Gimp-data-extras) which I have for Gimp which might be available for Mac or Windows. The checkbox to designate 'Use the selected font' should be in the small compose panel which pops up when you hit the text icon.
