     Load a 'GdkFont' based on a Pango font description. This font will
     only be an approximation of the Pango font, and
     internationalization will not be handled correctly. This function
     should only be used for legacy code that cannot be easily
     converted to use Pango. Using Pango directly will produce better
     results. *WARNING: 'gdk_font_from_description' is deprecated and
     should not be used in newly-written code.*

     ['GdkFont']  the newly loaded font, or 'NULL' if the font cannot
     be loaded.
