Jepp. Debian stable is slightly newer here than 14.04 thus gargi.ttf has already been removed from fonts-deva-extra in debian stable. Sven -- "Thinking of using NT for your critical apps?

I have no problem with "gargi Medium", that worked for me on stock Ubuntu 14.04 *shrug*. I suspect the problem with Mukti Narrow Bold could be related to this bug from last year ( https://github.com/mapnik/mapnik/issues/2183 ), which would mean the problem is with the TTF font file itself. So I have no idea how to fix it. For my own openstreetmap-carto based style, I'm going to just remove that font.

I worked around the gargi font problem by downgrading the fonts-deva-extra package to 2.0, but I havee no Idea about the Mukti dont. As Ubuntu and Debian packages are mostly common, I expect that the package name problems I had when switching Ubuntu versions are present on Debian too. A lot of apt-cache searching might be required to find the current names. For the specific issue of gargi, on Ubuntu 14.04 it is /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-indic-fonts-core/gargi.ttf from ttf-indic-fonts-core, and /usr/share/fonts/truetype/Gargi/Gargi.ttf is supplied from fonts-gargi. fc-query names the former gargi and the latter Gargi. They are not the same weight either, gargi is Medium with a weight of 100 and Gargi is Regular with a weight of 80. gargi has better coverage and more capabilities, but a lower version. Something I've found when researching fonts for Asian languages is that the versioning, releases, name consistency, and other releasing engineering matters are often inadequate. Coupled to this, many webpages for fonts disappear after a few years. If someone can come up with appropriate font names and package names that work on Ubuntu 14.04, 16.04, Debian stable, and Debian testing, please open an issue: https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
[OSM-dev] Mukti and Gargi fonts for openstreetmap-carto
