Tried to upgrade from 1.1.6 to 1.2.3, font sizes are broken.

Part of my code:

var openSansRegular = new Font('openSansRegular', 'data/fonts/Open_Sans/OpenSans-Regular.ttf');

function renderFooter (c, canvasHeight) {
  c.fillStyle = "#545454";
  c.font = "normal 11px openSansRegular";
  c.fillText('MMARocks.pl SINCE 2007  -  typermma.pl', 5, canvasHeight - 6);
  return false;
}

I then save it like this:

   var out = fs.createWriteStream(__dirname + '/../../data/bet-pictures/'+ filename);
    var stream = canvas.jpegStream({
        bufsize: 4096 // output buffer size in bytes, default: 4096
      , quality: 100 // JPEG quality (0-100) default: 75
      , progressive: false // true for progressive compression, default: false
    });

    stream.on('data', function(chunk){
      out.write(chunk);
      return false;
    });

Changing "11px" has literally no effect at all, size seems to default to 10px(or smth) at all times...

Also checked, its broken since 1.2.0.

I've noticed this as well. It might be have something to do with the use of an external font.

If you try c.font = "18px Arial"; font size will work. It looks like if it fails to parse any part of the font string (such as font-family), it discards the entire action of setting weight, size, and font-family.

The fonts example located at:
https://github.com/Automattic/node-canvas/blob/master/examples/font.js
is broken.

font.js example working in 1.1.6:

font.js example broken in 1.2.3:

I've tried on a mac and on an ubuntu linux machine with the same result

I'm getting a different behavior running font.js. I'm also getting odd behavior running text.js where the letters all overlap. It looks like cairo was updated in March, so I'm wondering if that has anything to do with the font issues.

Edit: I'm on OSX 10.10.3 with all tests passing:

> canvas@1.2.3 test /Users/justin/dev/them/node/node-canvas
> make test

canvas: 1.2.3
cairo: 1.14.2

I'm having the same problem with canvas 1.2.3, or a very similar one. With cairo 1.14.2, and node 0.12.4 (both installed with Homebrew) on 10.10.3, I get this for text.js:

and this for font.js:

The text backend has been reworked in 2.x, could you please try with that version and reopen if the issue persists, thanks ☺️
