[Bug 2251384] New: Wrong Arabic font prioritization in several apps. (Droid kufi prioritized over noto-sans)

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2251384 Bug ID: 2251384 Summary: Wrong Arabic font prioritization in several apps. (Droid kufi prioritized over noto-sans) Product: Fedora Version: 39 OS: Linux Status: NEW Component: fontconfig Severity: low Assignee: tagoh(a)redhat.com Reporter: alawamiaz(a)gmail.com QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org CC: ajax(a)redhat.com, fonts-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, gnome-sig(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, i18n-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, mclasen(a)redhat.com, rstrode(a)redhat.com, tagoh(a)redhat.com Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora Description of problem: Few fedora releases ago, Noto-Sans-Arabic was set to be the default. It was working fine and Arabic text was displayed in all web browsers using this font. sometime in last few months, every web browser in fedora suddenly started prioritizing "Druid Kufi" font over noto-sans-arabic. which now looks makes arabic text looks jarring. Interestingly, when running from live usb image, noto-sans-arabic is correctly priotirized and being used to render all arabic web pages, but only for FEW MINUTES and then suddenly it's switched to druid kufi!, without updating anything, just running Firefox for few minutes. It's also reproducible after fresh install, the first 3 minutes of using the new fedora installation, Firefox and other browsers are displaying noto-sans then suddenly switch to druid kufi. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 38-39 How reproducible: Consistently Steps to Reproduce: 1.Connect to internet 2.Open arabic webpage in firefox (ex, wikipedia) 3.text would be displayed with druid kufi instead of the default noto-sans-arabic which was chosen to be the default sometime around fedora 36. Actual results: Arabic Text displayed with druid kufi font Expected results: Arabic text should be displayed using noto-sans-arabic as was the case before. Additional info: The font in gnome and top bars is still correctly displayed using noto-sans-arabic. It's browsers that exhibit the problem. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2251384 Report this comment as SPAM: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Bugzilla&format=report-sp…

The same glyph appears with different amount of hinting in the same line of text, causing a very odd and blurry appearance. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): freetype-2.10.4-3.fc34.x86_64 bitstream-vera-sans-fonts-1.10-41.fc33.noarch dejavu-sans-fonts-2.37-16.fc34.noarch epiphany-40.3-1.fc34.x86_64 webkit2gtk3-2.32.3-1.fc34.x86_64 pango-1.48.9-2.fc34.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure Epiphany to use Bitstream Vera or DejaVu Sans Book 2. Configure full hinting Actual results: Fully hinted, consistent glyphs. Expected results: Some glyphs are fully hinted, some look like they've been offset by a fraction of a pixel. (See screenshot) Additional info: So far I'm only seeing this in Epiphany. I still filed this for freetype since as far as I know it is freetype that does all glyph layout, hinting and sub-pixel stuff. Feel free to move as appropriate. So it seems odd that a bug in Epiphany can screw this up. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
