Problem:
I encountered this problem on newly installed and updated Fedora 20
Pango-WARNING **: failed to create cairo scaled font, expect ugly output. the offending font is Arial Bold 19.53125 at /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/dpm/canvas_module.pm line 253.
Pango-WARNING **: font_face status is: out of memory at /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/dpm/canvas_module.pm line 253.

Solution:
1. open terminal
2. su -
3. chmod -Rf 777 /usr/share/fonts/*
4. Tada! Everything should be fixed now!
