Bug#298408: dia: export to eps-builtin does not set font properties

Package: dia
Version: 0.94.0-7
Severity: normal

When exporting to eps using the eps-builtin method instead of the
eps-pango method, the fonts in the resulting diagram do not respect
the italic, bold etc properties shown in the diagram (so everything
comes out in the plain, non-italic, non-oblique, non-bold version of
the font). 

If you cannot immediately duplicate it, I can send some examples.


dia has done this for a long time, but I only notice when I have to
use the eps-builtin method for some unusual reason (eg with the recent
bug when the eps-pango method produced tiny fonts for some text...)
This time I've remembered to report it.
