yeah, i did some digging soon after sending this, i'm pretty sure this is a problem in the vfs font method as it lacks a mime type in which to handle the fonts
my bad

On my Fedora Core 5,

   gnome-thumbnail-font /mnt/tmp/Zapinfo out.png

works. So how about removoing fonts:/// prefix from the
path given to gnome-thumbnail-font?

Which platform are you using?
Could you see the font with ftview?

If you can see it with ftview, the problem comes
from nautilus. If not, the problem comes from freetype2.
