[Bug 3512] Implement font-stretch property

by Bugzilla＠Mozilla

Do not reply to this email. You can add comments to this bug at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3512 --- Comment #30 from Bob T. <rdtennent(a)hotmail.com> 2008-03-04 17:54:18 PST --- "this needs to apply per family" Why? The web designer simply wants to specify, say, a condensed sans serif font. It doesn't have to match a non-condensed font used elsewhere. Think of "condensed" as analogous to "monospaced". "you can just use the 'xyz condensed' family most of the time" On Linux there is only one condensed font that one can expect is always available: Nimbus Sans L Condensed (a clone of Helvetica Condensed). Unfortunately, Firefox doesn't even allow the user to choose this font, much less use it automatically if "font-stretch: condensed" is specified, nor even if font-family: "Nimbus Sans L Condensed" is specified. Now do you see why something has to be done about this? Web pages that use a condensed sans font can't possibly be rendered properly in Linux, no matter what the web designer specifies. Please, at least fix this in the Linux version of Firefox. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Your solution appers to presume it would only be used with default/builtin families, or that it would change the font family. It is impractical to ask the user for the font face because: 1. My grandma doesn't know that fonts have faces, ears, eyes, or even noses. 2. Burdening the user with this means many would have no choice selected, which for all intents and purposes means nothing has been solved. 3. Users can't be expected to select a condensed font per family, it is too difficult. I suspect this problem isn't receiving much attention because it isn't widely used, you can just use the 'xyz condensed' family most of the time, no other browsers support it, and the fix is probably os dependent. It would still be nice though. -[Unknown] -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
