[Bug 981475] New: Improper glyph names in Lohit fonts
by Red Hat Bugzilla
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=981475
Bug ID: 981475
Summary: Improper glyph names in Lohit fonts
Product: Fedora
Version: rawhide
Component: lohit-fonts
Severity: unspecified
Priority: unspecified
Assignee: extras-orphan(a)fedoraproject.org

For purposes of text extraction from PDF files, glyphs should be named in
accordance with Adobe Glyph Naming convention
(http://www.adobe.com/devnet/opentype/archives/glyph.html). Most glyphs in
Lohit fonts follow this convention properly, but some do not. I did not do an
extensive review, but I noticed several occurances of glyph names like:
u0919_u094D.half_u0915_u094D.half.half
Which is wrong, since step 1 of the mapping algorithm in the above link will
drop the part of glyph name after the first occurence of a peroid, so only
u0919_u094D will remain which is assume is not what is wanted here. A proper
name would then be:
u0919_u094D_u0915_u094D.half.half.half
or something like that (the part after the peroid is completely ignored, so it
can be anything).

[Bug 1113968] New: Glyph for 0960 Devanagari Letter Vocalic RR should be corrected
by Red Hat Bugzilla
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1113968
Bug ID: 1113968
Summary: Glyph for 0960 Devanagari Letter Vocalic RR should be
corrected
Product: Fedora
Version: rawhide
Component: lohit-devanagari-fonts

Replacement glyph and ODT/PDF demonstrating change
Description of problem:
Currently the glyph for 0960 Devanagari Letter Vocalic RR (double RR) in Lohit
Devanagari is similar to glyph for 090B Devanagari Letter Vocalic R (single R)
from Unicode Devanagari Chart http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0900.pdf.
Reference code chart for correct glyph of 0960. Please see attached PDF
document for comparison with Sanskrit 2003 and Windows XP Mangal font.
As seen in Unicode chart and other fonts, the correct glyph of 0960 should have
two hooks at bottom right to differentiate from 090B. 090B can either have one
hook as seen in code chart and other fonts, or just a belly with no hook at all
as seen in current Lohit Devanagari.
To be more clearer, while the glyph for 090B in code chart and other fonts is
shown with one hook, the form shown by current Lohit Devanagari for 090B is
also acceptable as a glyphic variant. However, the glyph variant of 090B with
one hook should not be used for 0960.
Hence the current glyph of 0960 in Lohit Devanagari should be corrected.
I have devised a replacement glyph for 0960 showing two hooks as per the code
chart as well as in line with other fonts. (Glyph for 090B need not be replaced
as the current glyph is an acceptable variant.)
Please replace the current Lohit Devanagari 0960 glyph with this new glyph.
Thank you.

[Bug 1074274] New: fontpackages installs macros files to /etc/rpm
by Red Hat Bugzilla
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1074274
Bug ID: 1074274
Summary: fontpackages installs macros files to /etc/rpm
Product: Fedora
Version: rawhide
Component: fontpackages
Assignee: nicolas.mailhot(a)laposte.net

Blocks: 1074261
The proper location for rpm macros files in rpm >= 4.11 is
%{_rpmconfigdir}/macros.d, please move them there from /etc/rpm.
If this package's specfile targets Fedora and EL >= 7 only, the
location for macro files can be simply changed from /etc/rpm to
%{_rpmconfigdir}/macros.d. If it is intended to work on EL 5 and/or 6
as well, you can define a macros dir for example as follows (all on
one line) and install the macros to %{macrosdir}:
%global macrosdir %(d=%{_rpmconfigdir}/macros.d; [ -d $d ] ||
d=%{_sysconfdir}/rpm; echo $d)

Spacing of "s"
Description of problem:
Applies to Liberation Mono with BCI-hinting.
"s" is too far to the right or left, depending on the font size. E.g. "users"
looks like "user s" at size 11. (See first attachment for font sizes 8-16.)
"ow" is merging in bold font, at least at size 11. E.g. in "downloads". (See
second attachment.)
Version-Release number of selected component:

How reproducible:
Always with this ".fonts.conf":
<?xml version="1.0"?>

[Bug 1005780] New: Liberation Sans Mono Enhancement Request: Modification needed for "l" Character
by Red Hat Bugzilla
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1005780
Bug ID: 1005780
Summary: Liberation Sans Mono Enhancement Request: Modification
needed for "l" Character
Product: Fedora
Version: 19
Component: liberation-fonts
Severity: low
Assignee: psatpute(a)redhat.com
Reporter: wrkerr(a)gmail.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:
Lowercase "l" character very closely resembles the "1" character from many
other typefaces, especially at smaller point sizes, and even more so in the
italic style.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.00.1
How reproducible:
Type an italic "l" at 8 point size. Print alongside "1" also at 8 point size
from some other monospaced fonts, such as DejaVu Sans Mono and notice the
similarity.
Additional info:
I have found Liberation Mono to be the best Free typeface for my coding
purposes. I particularly love how readable yet compact it is at small sizes.
I've had difficultly though with the "l" character. I find that this character
seems to me to be indistinguishable from the "1" character from many other
typefaces. The problem is even more apparent when the font is used in the
italic style. To my perception, an "l" formed more similar to that of the
DejaVu Sans Mono, Source Code Pro, or Ubuntu Mono would fit better with the
overall design approach of the typeface by being clearly readable at all
sizes--it could no longer be confused with any other character. This would
include a leftward serif at the top of the letter, and a rightward curvature at
the bottom of the character. To my eye, DejaVu Sans Mono's "l" would be the
best model.
