Hi Warren,

I don't have a windows computer to test with. On linux, cairo is usually built with freetype support. This is probably why even the "toy fonts" work pretty good. On windows, you might not have cairo built with freetype support. Cairo does have the following

https://cairographics.org/manual/cairo-Win32-Fonts.html

to try out. Or, try to find a build with freetype support and use freetype to get specific fonts on windows.
