But requesting a language for the style does *not* work. Requesting an non-existing language for the style, e.g. "xx" or "de" (The styles of Arial have no German translation) results in an empty result. But requesting "en" or any other language where translations of the style exist doesn’t limit the result to the requested language. I guess it should, therefore this looks like a fontconfig bug to me.

A font which had a more exotic style, say "Condensed" translated in many languages would probably show the problem reportedd here in Gnome as well. (Qt has problems with fonts with many styles anyway, see bug #369466 and bug 330658 for example).

I will try explain, what I have found and what would help in my opinion. First, for each font we have defined four lists: FAMILY .. family name in different languages FAMILYLANG .. languages corresponding to entries in FAMILY STYLE .. style name in different languages STYLELANG .. languages corresponding to entries in STYLE As far as I can see, STYLE and STYLELANG are handled in fontconfig similar way as FAMILY and FAMILYLANG respectively. But, these two pairs are handled differently by Office: FcResult eFamilyRes = rWrapper.FamilyFromPattern( pFSet->fonts[i], &family ); FcResult eStyleRes = rWrapper.FcPatternGetString( pFSet->fonts[i], FC_STYLE, 0, &style ); This is in my opinion wrong, because I believe FamilyFromPattern() chooses the name in right language, but FcPatternGetString(..,FC_STYLE,0,..) takes the _first_ element from the list. If all from the above is true, then all what remains is to implement StyleFromPattern() function (very similar to FamilyFromPattern()) and change one line in countFontconfigFonts(). Could someone with better experience with Office patching and building to try this out?
