I've tried a large number of fonts and so far the only one that has worked for me is Open Sans. Have to assume I'm not the only one having these problems

This took considerable time to find and was really just found by accident, but it turns out that there is a python script that should've existed here:

/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/BlackmagicFusion.py

On nodes this file didn't exist, fusion complained about fonts not being found. On nodes where it did, everything was kosher. Reinstalling fusion didn't correct the issue either, we had to manually copy this file to the affected nodes and then things started working as expected.


Cheers
