I am familiar with the "tricks" used in font files to support older
applications.
FontLab VI has similar documentation and font naming tools.

These were simply errors.
The errors caused an image editor and various font managers to display the
wrong font rather than the one selected.
I fixed the fonts, finished the project which needed that font, 
and forgot about it until I saw this bug report.

Since I fixed and used Avenir LT Std, I have acquired Avenir Next LT Pro.
This updated version of the font family does not have these issues.
In fact the font meta data looks much like my fixed files in the Std version.

OK. 
I will post some other issues in the other "font family" bug reports.
I think it would help to have you testing on the Mac 
the same fonts I am testing on Windows.

In this case, please use open source fonts. In doing so, you enable everybody
to test the same fonts.

OK. I now do understand what this Avenir LT Std is doing.  
What threw me is there are two R,B,I,BI mods.  

But the BAD news is they do not work properly on LibreOffice.
LO does not display the fonts correctly.
And the dialogs are inconsistent in displaying the correct bold font selected.
Which I see as additional evidence of why it looks wrong.

Saved the ODT test doc to DOCX, reapplied the font selections to the BAD
displays.
Word 2016 works properly as expected.
The fonts display correctly.

They look the same as QuarkXPess and InDesign.


By restricting testing to only open source fonts these errors will just
continue.

Oh well. 
I will document the error in the Fonts Guide so users will not waste hours
trying to get broken features to work with modern font families.
