 Sorry for my insistence, but what are the advantages of pango font
 system over the GdkFont ?

 possibilities aren't needed for my purposes, while GdkFont functions
 seems to me more understandable.

 BTW, does the 'deprecated' mean that these functions could be
 excluded from one of next GTK versions ?
