LibreOffice with all three fonts displayed in regular, italic and bold face.
I have installed some company-provided fonts for use in presentations etc.:
$ ls /usr/share/fonts/neo-sans-intel/
NeoSansIntel-Italic.ttf NeoSansIntel-MediumItalic.ttf
NeoSansIntel-LightItalic.ttf NeoSansIntel-Medium.ttf
NeoSansIntel-Light.ttf NeoSansIntel.ttf
In LibreOffice I have a choice of three separate fonts: Neo Sans Intel, Neo
Sans Intel Medium, and Neo Sans Intel Light.
For each of those three, the italic version of the font (from the separate TTF
file) is used. I can tell by the tail on the 'f' character. For bold text,
however, an 'emboldening' algorithm seems to be used instead of using the
appropriate separate font file.
In GNOME font selection dialogs, I see just one 'Neo Sans Intel' family, with a
choice of 8 styles. I'll ignore the italic versions since those do actually
seem to work as expected, so there are four weights listed:
- Light (== Neo Sans Intel Light)
- Regular (== Neo Sans Intel Medium)
- Medium (== Neo Sans Intel Medium)
- Bold (== Neo Sans Intel Medium + emboldening algorithm?)
I *don't* seem to have an option in GNOME which will just use the straight 'Neo
Sans Intel' font.
So both seem to be getting it wrong, in different ways. Or perhaps there's
something wrong with the fonts themselves?
