Summary: Liberation Mono is not really monospaced font Product: Fedora Version: 12 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: low Component: liberation-fonts AssignedTo: cchance@redhat.com ReportedBy: kir@sacred.ru QAContact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: petersen@redhat.com, cchance@redhat.com, fonts-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org, fedora-i18n-bugs@redhat.com Estimated Hours: 0.0 Classification: Fedora
Description of problem: When using Liberation Mono as a default monospace font in Firefox, I have noticed that the lines of equal width (in terms of characters) all have different width. It can clearly be seen on a screenshots that I will attach shortly.
It took me about 15 minutes to understand it. I tried with Andale Mono and it looks fine.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): $ rpm -q liberation-mono-fonts liberation-fonts-common fontconfig freetype firefox fedora-release liberation-mono-fonts-1.05.1.20090721-2.fc12.noarch liberation-fonts-common-1.05.1.20090721-2.fc12.noarch fontconfig-2.8.0-1.fc12.x86_64 fontconfig-2.8.0-1.fc12.i686 freetype-2.3.11-3.fc12.x86_64 freetype-2.3.11-3.fc12.i686 firefox-3.5.6-1.fc12.x86_64 fedora-release-12-2.noarch
How reproducible: always
Steps to Reproduce: 1. make sure liberation mono is installed (rpm -q liberation-mono-fonts) and available (fc-match 'liberation mono') 2. Open this page in your browser http://kir.sacred.ru/tmp/liberation-mono.html 3. Try increasing/decreasing text size (in case of Firefox use Ctrl with +/-).
Actual results: Lines are of different width
Expected results: Lines are of the same width
