--- Comment #2 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.fo...@utsa.edu> ---
There is no internal UI for working with OpenType 1.8 OTF Variable fonts. Work
flows would need to be altered as would printing and export.

Why would we change over to Source Sans Variable now? Absent correct handling
of the variable font--we would get an arbitrary and likely unusable rendering
of the font--or more likely a fall-back to another on system font. We'd just be
wasting space in the deployment package.

Until such time as support for OTF 1.8.2 "fvar" (bug 103596) is implemented
substituting this or any other variable font makes no sense.

Duping this to bug 103596, as only when that enhancement is undertaken would it
make sense to adopt any variable font.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 103506 ***
