Hi, I'm trying to use '-font-face <name>' to load a different font for Pd and it doesn't seem to work. It seems also I can't put font names with spaces, like "DejaVu Sans Mono", I thought this was a bug that got fixed but couldn't test it.
cheers

Dear Alex
I started pd with:
pd -font-face "IBM Plex Mono"
That seemed to work. See screenshot attached showing a comment in a pd window and an example of the font (in a font manager). Defaults to bold, but that is expected, right?
Is that what is not working for you?
I am on Ubuntu 20.04 and using pd 0.50.2 (built from source).

Also works here on Windows:
pd -font-face "Courier New"
Don't forget the quotation marks.

This method will work only when PD is started from the command line or from a script.
It's still not working when a font-face with spaces is defined in the File/Preferences/Startup Section of PD

You're right. The problem is that "sys_doflags" doesn't respect quotation marks. I just opened an issue: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/issues/1065
