[Bug 1072095] New: Liberation Sans renders most Latin combining characters incorrectly
by Red Hat Bugzilla 09 Sep '18

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1072095 Bug ID: 1072095 Summary: Liberation Sans renders most Latin combining characters incorrectly Product: Fedora Version: 20 Component: liberation-fonts Assignee: psatpute(a)redhat.com Reporter: rkaldari(a)wikimedia.org QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org CC: fonts-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, i18n-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, petersen(a)redhat.com, psatpute(a)redhat.com Created attachment 870161 --> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=870161&action=edit Comparison between Helvetica, Arimo, and Liberation Sans Description of problem: Liberation Sans renders most Latin Unicode combining characters incorrectly. These are the diacritics and tie characters in the Unicode range U+0300 to U+FE2F (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combining_character) In particular: 1. The diacritics do not take into account the width or height of the paired character (which I imagine is a kerning issue) 2. Tie characters are always positioned incorrectly. They are supposed to visually tie two characters together, but in Liberation Sans they are simply centered under the 2nd character. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): version 2.00.1 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Liberation Sans 2. Go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Kaldari/Font_test Actual results: Diacritics and ties are a mess. Expected results: See Helvetica example in attached file. Additional info: The best way to understand this bug is to look at the attached file (comparison.png). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

That'd be great and I don't think it'll take you long. Regards -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 1090631] New: Please set TT_NAME_ID_PREFERRED_FAMILY for Liberation fonts

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1090631 Bug ID: 1090631 Summary: Please set TT_NAME_ID_PREFERRED_FAMILY for Liberation fonts Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Component: liberation-fonts Assignee: psatpute(a)redhat.com Reporter: rhughes(a)redhat.com QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org CC: fonts-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, i18n-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, petersen(a)redhat.com, psatpute(a)redhat.com Description of problem: At the moment the TT_NAME_ID_PREFERRED_FAMILY is not set on any of the Liberation fonts. As I understand it, TT_NAME_ID_PREFERRED_FAMILY is supposed to be the same for all files in the same high-level family, and this seems to be what most other fonts do in Linux. For the next release could you please set the PreferredFamily key to just "Liberation" in all 10 files. This allows component installers like gnome-software to group the fonts together rather than showing them as separate entries and should have no other effects.

I'm puzzled, why does this happen? By the way, other Serbian glyphs aren't copied at all, but they told me this is XeLaTeX's fault, not font-dependent. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Description of problem: The shape of the Regular (Normal) "Cyrillic macedonian small letter be" looks. It looks like the italic form minus the slant which is wrong! Also the letters "macedonian cyrilic ghe" and "macedonian cyrillic gje" look inconsistent in italic form. The "macedonian cyrilic gje" should look same as "macedonian cyrilic ghe" with an added accent. I'm attaching a pdf file that should explain the problem. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
