Hi,

we are probably going to need more than the name string later. For
example the embedded boolean... See FontInfo.h for other info that is
already exposed. Also we may need more later, kde for example use the
font path.
You could pass back a list of structures... something like:

typedef struct {
  char *name;
  char *path;
  gboolean embedded;
  ....
}

ev_font_info_new
ev_font_info_free

Though, at that point, I probably prefer the iterator api. Still if
you like that better I can fixup the patch... let me know.

Marco
