[Scribus] Different font names Windows/Linux

[Eilert]

Hi folks,

I just saw that some fonts appear under different names in programs 
under the Adobe Font Manager and in Linux. I've got two fonts here, one 
is Bodoni Book, the other one is New Century Schoolbook, which have 
different names:

Windows: "Bodoni Book", "NewCenturySchlbk"
Linux: "Bodoni", "New Century Schoolbook"

In a project I am programming at the moment I had this problem for the 
first time. The program uses fonts and reads their names from a file or 
writes them into the file. The same file must be usable for Windows 
programs, too, so I had to introduce a table of name replacements to 
handle this.

Why is that? Does anyone here know about that? Before I stumbled over 
this problem, I always wondered when in Linux why some fonts seemed to 
be missing. Now I know, they're there, but under different names...
