This is SO ANNOYING, even if it is to comply to some new fontconfig rules!
I want my DejaVu Condensed fonts back! In all applications!
I recently installed openSUSE 10.3 and now all my OpenOffice documents are
wrong! The most recent version of DejaVu that shows the Condensed fonts in OO
is version 2.8. I got it at
http://dejavu.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Old_Downloads
The latest version can be downloaded from
http://dejavu.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Download
I looked into a Gnome application to see how to it now displays the new
fonts. I opened gnome-appearance-properties, selected the Fonts tab, and
clicked on the Application Font button to see how it would show the
DejaVu fonts. It is terrible, there is now 9 styles to choose just in
the DejaVu Sans family, plus 8 in the DejaVu Serif family. The Mono
family still shows 4 styles. You can see the screnshot I took below.
I prefer the old stile, where styles were better organized by providing
a Condensed family. This also allows for faster selection of the fonts
because I know by reading its name that it is a Condensed font.
Please someone, have a nice solution to this problem, as soon as
possible!!
Thanks.
