            Bug ID: 101510
           Summary: Installing an incomplete set of fonts causes issues in
                    Google Chrome
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Installation
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: e...@siliconforks.com

LibreOffice installs Open Sans Regular, Italic, Bold, and Bold Italic; however,
it does not install Light, Light Italic, Semi-Bold, Semi-Bold Italic,
Extra-Bold, and Extra-Bold Italic.  See the complete list here:

https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Open+Sans

Installing an incomplete set of fonts like this actually causes issues in
Google Chrome: Google Chrome will prefer to use the locally installed font
instead of a webfont, even if the font weight is not available locally.  For
example, suppose a web page tries to display Open Sans Semi-Bold (font-weight:
600) with a webfont; Chrome will instead use the locally installed Open Sans
Bold (font-weight: 700), even though it is not really the correct weight and
there is a webfont with the correct weight available.
