This has been fixed in later versions, so this proposed upload installs Roboto fonts from fonts-android 4.4.4r2 instead of 4.3. Unlike fonts-droid, fonts-roboto is not a seeded package, so while it's an annoying bug for those affected, this fix only affects those who explicitly install and use fonts-roboto. [Test Case] * Package: fonts-roboto 1:4.3-3ubuntu1.1 * Expected Results: When using Roboto fonts in a document (pdf, odf, etc.), I should be able to print the document. * Current Results: Roboto fonts make the printer crash instead of printing. The printer I am using is a HP-Laser Jet P2055. [Regression Potential] Low. [Original Description] As per https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=38383, there has been issues with the Roboto font family regarding printing. These issues seem to have been resolved in the new version of the fonts made available by Google in 2014 here http://developer.android.com/design/style/typography.html. My setup: 1) Release: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 2) Package: fonts-roboto 1:4.3-3ubuntu1.1 3) Expected Results: When using Roboto fonts in a document (pdf, odf, etc.), I should be able to print the document. 4) Current Results: Roboto fonts make the printer crash instead of printing. The printer I am using is a HP-Laser Jet P2055. Steps to reproduce: Install "fonts-roboto" package from Ubuntu Software Center. Produce a document in Libre Office with Roboto font and send to printer. Printer is crashing, need hard reboot. Workaround: (1) Remove "fonts-roboto" package from Ubuntu Software Center. (2) Download new version of the fonts made available by Google and save them in the ".fonts" folder in "home" directory. (3) Produce a new document with Roboto font and send to printer. (4) Document is printing. Basically, I think this package just need to be updated to use the latest fonts issued by Google.
