[Fedora-i18n-bugs] [Bug 1036220] New: Font hinting and aliasing not properly configured on fresh Fedora 19 install.
by Red Hat Bugzilla 20 Dec '16

20 Dec '16

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1036220 Bug ID: 1036220 Summary: Font hinting and aliasing not properly configured on fresh Fedora 19 install. Product: Fedora Version: 19 Component: fontconfig Severity: high Assignee: tagoh(a)redhat.com Reporter: alxgrtnstrngl(a)gmail.com QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org CC: fonts-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, i18n-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, pnemade(a)redhat.com, tagoh(a)redhat.com Created attachment 830756 --> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=830756&action=edit These are the configurations for 10-antialias.conf and 10-hinting-slight.conf Description of problem: The fonts in Fedora 19 look odd, thin and the font alignment is totally off resulting in unreadable or very poor quality text. Setting Gnome Shell's or even Mate's anti-aliasing font-configuration here does nothing to enhance text quality. Web-pages in browsers such as Chrome and Firefox look ugly and strange. Other Linux distributions such as Ubuntu and Unixes like Mac OS X do not have this problem, on fresh installs fonts look crisp, beautiful and full. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora release 19 (Schrödinger’s Cat) How reproducible: Do a fresh install of Fedora 19 from the install images, look at the fonts. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Do a fresh install of Fedora 19 from the install images. 2. Attempt to use the desktop environment settings to adjust the font aliasing and hinting. 3. Look at text rendering versus that in other distributions. Actual results: Text is rendered in a very odd and thin way, kerning is also off and the fonts characters are misaligned, in Fedora resulting in a degraded visual experience especially in web-browsers, Expected results: Text should render in a similar beautiful and smooth fashion the way it does on other Linux distributions such as Ubuntu and Unixes such as Mac OS X. Additional info: Manual configuration is required to fix this by creating the proper symbolic links between '/usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/' and '/etc/fonts/conf.d' for the following configurations which are installed in 'conf.avail' but just never configured out of the box: '/usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/10-sub-pixel-rgb.conf' '/usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/11-lcdfilter-default.conf' It also requires the creation of the following two font configurations which are attached to this bug report and the creation of the corresponding symbolic links in '/etc/fonts/conf.d': '/usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/10-antialias.conf' '/usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/10-hinting-slight.conf' External References: http://ruturaj.net/tweaking-gnome3-fedora-fonts-like-ubuntu/ -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Fedora-i18n-bugs] [Bug 1405629] Feature request for changing ibus keyboard shortcuts ( Ctrl + Shift + e, Ctrl +Shift + u, ...) or for disabling them

You *really* shouldn't generalize like this... I've been using Emacs for some time and never ever used Ctrl+Shift+e to select (or any Shift+motion combination). Anyway, this would have to be addressed in ibus, but I don't think that it's a real bug. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Fedora-i18n-bugs] [Bug 798871] New: Please add Vedic Extensions to Lohit fonts
by Red Hat Bugzilla 20 Dec '16

Please do not reply directly to this email. All additional comments should be made in the comments box of this bug. Summary: Please add Vedic Extensions to Lohit fonts https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=798871 Summary: Please add Vedic Extensions to Lohit fonts Product: Fedora Version: 16 Platform: Unspecified OS/Version: Unspecified Status: NEW Severity: unspecified Priority: unspecified Component: lohit-fonts AssignedTo: extras-orphan(a)fedoraproject.org ReportedBy: samjnaa(a)gmail.com QAContact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org CC: petersen(a)redhat.com, extras-orphan(a)fedoraproject.org, pnemade(a)redhat.com, fonts-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, psatpute(a)redhat.com, i18n-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org Classification: Fedora Story Points: --- Type: --- Regression: --- Mount Type: --- Documentation: --- Description of problem: It is very good that Red Hat / Fedora takes steps to update Lohit fonts with latest encoded Indic characters, especially Vedic characters included in Devanagari Extended block. (See https://www.redhat.com/archives/lohit-devel-list/2012-February/msg00011.html) As a Sanskrit/Vedic scholar I very much welcome this. However, it would be even greater if the separate Vedic characters that are encoded in the Vedic Extensions block (http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U1CD0.pdf) created in Unicode 5.2 along with Devanagari Extended were also supported. As Devanagari is the script mainly used for Sanskrit and especially Vedic printings nowadays, it would be best to add the characters initially to the Lohit Devanagari font so that it can combine properly with the Devanagari characters. If at all there is future demand for the glyphs to be added to the font of another script (like Telugu etc which are also often used for Vedic texts in those areas) the glyphs can easily be copied to those fonts in the future. OpenType normally cannot join base characters from one font with combining marks from a different font. So a separate Lohit Vedic font with purely Vedic characters is not possible. As the glyphs from the Vedic Extensions block have very simple shapes, it would hopefully be easy to design those glyphs and add them to the fonts. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.5.1 How reproducible: Install Lohit Devanagari 2.5.1 font. Actual results: The Devanagari-specific Vedic characters especially from the Devanagari Extended block are available. The generic Vedic characters from the Vedic Extensions block are not available. Expected results: It is desirable to have the generic Vedic characters from the Vedic Extensions block also. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
