[Bug 1574410] New: Incorrect lowercase Cyrillic BE for Macedonian language in liberation v2 (look like Greek delta)
by bugzilla＠redhat.com 28 Aug '18

28 Aug '18

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1574410 Bug ID: 1574410 Summary: Incorrect lowercase Cyrillic BE for Macedonian language in liberation v2 (look like Greek delta) Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Component: liberation-fonts Assignee: petersen(a)redhat.com Reporter: dmjpp(a)hotmail.com QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org CC: alexl(a)redhat.com, fonts-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, i18n-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, john.j5live(a)gmail.com, mbarnes(a)fastmail.com, mclasen(a)redhat.com, petersen(a)redhat.com, psatpute(a)redhat.com, rhughes(a)redhat.com, rstrode(a)redhat.com, sandmann(a)redhat.com Description of problem: The lowercase BE (U+0431, б ) looks incorrect. It looks like Greek lowercase delta δ. This is related to this change https://pagure.io/liberation-fonts/c/607af724740a2daf868b4d2b731d58bf1f5b46… and bug 657849 While those changes may matter for Serbian, the Macedonian BE in regular fonts actually looks same as the Russian. ONLY in italic fonts the delta look is applicable, because italic fonts kinda look like handwriting. Note that if you open the page for Cyrillic alphabet or the Cyrillic BE on wikipedia, it states incorrect and uncited info about this, Macedonian and Serbian shape of BE is different. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.00.1 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install harfbuzz and liberation2 2. Run the following commands cd location/of/fonts hb-view --language=mk LiberationSerif-Regular.ttf б hb-view --language=mk LiberationSans-Regular.ttf б hb-view --language=mk LiberationMono-Regular.ttf б hb-view --language=mk LiberationSerif-Bold.ttf б hb-view --language=mk LiberationSans-Bold.ttf б hb-view --language=mk LiberationMono-Bold.ttf б Alternative way to trigger is to: 1. Open libeoffice (Liberation Serif is selected by default) 2. Write: б 3. Select that and change the paragraph language to Macedonian. Actual results: I see the delta Expected results: Should have the standard "six" shape, not "delta" shape cd location/of/fonts hb-view --language=en LiberationSerif-Regular.ttf б hb-view --language=en LiberationSans-Regular.ttf б hb-view --language=en LiberationMono-Regular.ttf б hb-view --language=en LiberationSerif-Bold.ttf б hb-view --language=en LiberationSans-Bold.ttf б hb-view --language=en LiberationMono-Bold.ttf б Additional info: -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 18725] New: RFE: allow merging of legacy font family names

http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18725 Summary: RFE: allow merging of legacy font family names Product: fontconfig Version: 2.6 Platform: Other OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: library AssignedTo: keithp(a)keithp.com ReportedBy: nicolas.mailhot(a)laposte.net CC: fedora-fonts-bugs-list(a)redhat.com Historically font formats only allowed four faces regular, bold, italic, bold italic. You had to use a separate font family to distribute condensed, heavy etc variants This has changed (cf http://blogs.msdn.com/text/attachment/2249036.ashx ) and modern fonts such as DejaVu include all faces under a single family name. Applications such as OO.o are being fixed to handle multifaced fonts Unfortunately there are still many historic fonts in the wild distributed in several sets of four faces (gs fonts, arial narrow, arial bold, etc). Those fonts currently appear under different family names in fontconfig-using apps. This is perturbing to users, since the same faces of historic and modern fonts are not handled the same way. Microsoft did some sort of magic in uniscribe to hide this distinction (irrelevant to users). Please provide a documented config pattern for font distributors that enables them to declare to fontconfig "font family A and font family B are the same, please expose all the associated faces under A name to users". (of course an application asking explicitely for B should still get it, but users would only see A in font lists) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

This is handled by the locl flag in modern opentype fonts. However there are still many non-opentype fonts in the wild, and it is not possible to convert them all at once (when the license permits it). There should be a way in fontconfig for font distributors to patch in via a config file the locl characteristics of a font. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Respecting the WWS model is declaring fields 21 and 22 or 16 in 17 in ways that respect WWS (only weight, width and slant in sytles) This way we can point FLOSS authors to fc-query as linting tools and promote font naming our apps can handle easily -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
