Yeah, I agree.

IMO these should be part of standard Ubuntu installation, or at least required by Libreoffice. The user experience when opening documents written in MS Office in its standard fonts is currently terrible. Seems like a very easy change, it's surprising it hasn't been implemented yet. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1612114 Title: Add carlito and caladea fonts to libreoffice Recommends list Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: See here: https://wiki.debian.org/SubstitutingCalibriAndCambriaFonts One of the easiest things we can do to make LibreOffice documents look good when importing .docx and .pptx is to have fonts that follow the metrics of popular Microsoft Office fonts, specifically Calibri and Cambria.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1612114] Re: Add carlito and caladea fonts to libreoffice Recommends list
The suggestion was to make them Required rather than Recommended, because so many Office documents use those fonts, and those documents looks terrible when other fonts are substituted -- it will turn users off LO. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1612114 Title: Add carlito and caladea fonts to libreoffice Recommends list Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: See here: https://wiki.debian.org/SubstitutingCalibriAndCambriaFonts One of the easiest things we can do to make LibreOffice documents look good when importing .docx and .pptx is to have fonts that follow the metrics of popular Microsoft Office fonts, specifically Calibri and Cambria.
