[Desktop-packages] [Bug 932958] Re: Some characters too wide with default fixed-with font
In a terminal, enter: pango-view --font=Ubuntu Mono 48 --markup --text='span fallback=falseABC#13;A☺C#13;A▷C/span' This demonstrates that: - the ☺ character in Ubuntu Mono is the correct width - the ▷ character is not present in Ubuntu Mono at all. The lists of fonts that have the problem, and ... do not seem to be lists of fonts that contain those two characters or not. So the bug here probably is not with any individual font; it is that monospace fonts fall back to proportional fonts for missing characters, instead of falling back to another monospace font with the desired glyph. ** Changed in: ubuntu-font-family Status: New = Incomplete ** Summary changed: - Some characters too wide with default fixed-with font + [nc] Some characters too wide with default fixed-with font -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xfonts-terminus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/932958 Title: [nc] Some characters too wide with default fixed-with font Status in Ubuntu Font Family: Incomplete Status in fonts-tlwg package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in ttf-droid package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in ubuntu-font-family-sources package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in xfonts-terminus package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The character ▷ (Unicode code point U+25B7, white right-pointing triangle) takes up more space than other characters.

I tried a couple different fonts. Some have the problem, and others do not. A sample of fonts that have the problem: * Droid Sans Mono * TlwgMono Medium * Ubuntu Mono * Terminus A sample of fonts that do _not_ have the problem: * Andale Mono * DejaVu Sans Mono * FreeMono -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/932958 Title: Some characters too wide with default fixed-with font Status in “gnome-terminal” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The character ▷ (Unicode code point U+25B7, white right-pointing triangle) takes up more space than other characters.
