>From testing in trunk, you cannot select the Bold style for the
Condensed face from the UI. If you have the Text & Font dialog open
though and manually type Bold into the Style widget on the Text Tool
Controls Bar it will show correctly in the T&F preview widget but not on
canvas.

Title:
  ubuntu condensed bold font not shown correctly inside inkscape

Status in Inkscape: A Vector Drawing Tool:
  New
Status in “inkscape” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  ubuntu condensed font with the bold weight is not rendered properly
  inside inkscape, as can be seen from the attachments. in fact,
  inkscape shows the normal weight font instead. the wrong font also
  appears when exported to bitmap or when converted to paths. on the
  other hand, save as pdf produces a correct font, and viewing the
  inkscape svg file with, say, geeque, also shows the correct font.

  this might be relevant to other fonts also, but i did not check.

  while this bug report is filed from ubuntu 13.04, the same thing is
  observed on a fully updated 13.10.
