Hello,

I have made simply test:

Cout () << "FC_WEIGHT_NORMAL: " << FC_WEIGHT_NORMAL << "\n";
Cout () << "FC_WEIGHT_BOLD:   " << FC_WEIGHT_BOLD << "\n";

The return values for Kubuntu 13.04 is

FC_WEIGHT_NORMAL: 80
FC_WEIGHT_BOLD:   200

It seems that 80 constant for FC_WEIGHT_NORMAL looks ok and 100 is too high. On the other hand, 160 constant for bold fonts is too low.

I am not sure, but why we can't replace this line using FC_WEIGHT_NORMAL and FC_WEIGHT_BOLD constants? I have enclosed sample code:

FcPatternAddInteger(p, FC_WEIGHT, font.IsBold() ? FC_WEIGHT_BOLD : FC_WEIGHT_NORMAL);

P.S.
On Ubuntu 13.04 values are the same.

Sincerely,
Klugier
