Your are right, in Format->Character when I select the Swiss 721 font I see
Light, Light Italic, Standard and Italic.

When I select "Light" I can write in the Light style. When I select "Bold" in
the toolbar I get the medium style, but when I then unselect "Bold" it stays
with that style and does not return to the "Light" one.

Don't know how this should work in an application, but for example there are 32
styles of the Swiss 721 font. http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/bitstream/swiss-721/

I'd think that Swiss 721 in the toolbar should be the "normal" Roman version
with italic, bold and bold italic styles being chosen when you klick the icons
in the toolbar.

But what do you do with styles like light, thin, medium, condensed or black?
They do not really fit in this scheme. Is medium a bold light? Is light then the
bold thin?

>From a users perspective I'd rather have als these different styles available 
>in
the font selector then having the application trying to interpret these styles
in some way.

This different on Windows, there these fonts are correctly named and seperate in
the selector.

issue 42835 is basically the same. From m88 on it should be possible to select
the additional styles in "Format->Character".

This does not seem to be a fontconfig issue!

It also happens when you move font files directly into the openoffice font
directory /usr/lib/openoffice2/share/fonts/truetype (on Ubuntu Linux).

fc-list does not show these fonts, so they are not going through fontconfig.

In ~/.openoffice.org2/user/psprint/pspfontcache I see

File:0759A___.pfb
1;1
Swiss 721
-1;Swiss721BT-Medium;0;6;0;2;91;965;236;201;0;1239;719;1239;719;0;0759A___.afm

In the font selector in writer there is just one entry "Swiss 721" and selecting
that I get the medium style. No way to select the light style.

In OO.org2 on Windows there are two entries, "Swiss 721 lt" and "Swiss 721 md".

Ok, sorry, I misunderstood you. I thought your last comment was about manually
renaming PostScript font names. So in fact your bug is exactly the same as mine:
It seems fontconfig is used in a very crude way in OO/SO, that does not allow
to handle a bit more complex font families.

My bug report has nothing at all to do with Adobe
and with any Adobe font CD.

I have a PostScript font called "Foobar-Semibold".

StarOffice 8 messes up this name since it displays
it as "Foobar Bold".

To show "Semibold" as "Bold" is what I call "to mess with".

andreas_prilop: I am not "messing around" with font names. The font names
given on top of this issue are the original names as the fonts come directly off
a Adobe font cd. I suppose the same is true for the submitter of #56285

I install a PostScript typeface Foobar consisting of a *single* font/style.

When the name is Foobar-Light,
StarOffice 8 shows the style correctly as "Light".

When the name is Foobar-Demibold or Foobar-Semibold or Foobar-Boldoni,
StarOffice 8 shows the style *corrupted* as "Bold".

Apparently, *every* style name that has the *sub*string "bold"
is wrongly displayed as "Bold".

Conclusion:
DO NOT MESS with style names! Accept all style names as they are!
