--- Comment #21 from Yury <yury.tarasiev...@gmail.com> --- I'm still very unconvinced (but have it your own way, of course). I do NOT believe I ought to have to hand-tune lots of fonts in a config file having obscure and convoluted format in order just to get a sensible font face substitution (is it the same on Windows and Mac, BTW?). If I add a font, do I have to do this again? I knew what fc-match would show, of course. The point is such use of the fontconfig engine can show only the output of the built-in rules (which, yes, would give fallback to DejaVuSans on almost all linux systems out-of-the-box). While (obviously?) the problem I'm talking should be solved by more accurate use of the fontconfig engine (there IS such API in fontconfig, isn't there?) I might yet agree to the need for editing fontconfigs in order to get a SPECIFIC substitution (glyph from the specific face), although that's also has too much of an 1980s-style usability. If only somebody directed me to the code doing the fontconfig match request, I'd just attempt to make this mod for myself. *** > > > > Why're the bitmapped fonts excluded from being UI font, BTW? > > > > > > Ditto. > > > > There are no raster fonts in list of choices in the fonts substitution > > dialog (where one may choose a replacement for Andale Sans UI or Segoe UI > > faces). > > Do you have such fonts in a format that LibreOffice can use (e.g. not in X > bitmap format which I think support for it was long dropped).

I have such fonts installed in format which every other multi-platofrm application on my system is capable of using (there are BDFs and PCFs). Not LibO, though. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
