[Bug 130687] Re: fontconfig alias for ZapfDingbats font
This is fixed upstream in fontconfig 2.9.0, so Fix Released in Quantal and later. Precise is still affected. The workaround is to install the package cups-filters, which contains a fontconfig file with an appropriate alias. ** Changed in: fontconfig (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged = Fix Released ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #590487 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=590487 ** Also affects: debian via http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=590487 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #19128 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19128 ** Also affects: fontconfig via https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19128 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/130687 Title: fontconfig alias for ZapfDingbats font To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/fontconfig/+bug/130687/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Cloos Jr. wrote: This is an example of the more general issue that aliass are matched to patterns' fontnames literally, but actual fonts' names are matched with whitespace ignored. Ie, if the font is installed, these: :; fc-match DejaVuSansMono :; fc-match 'DejaVu Sans Mono' give the same result. But to use aliases you need to have all possibilities accounted for in the conf. It is also related to the issue that libs like poppler pass PS names to fontconfig whereas fontconfig caches the full names. (For Type1 fc caches the /FullName, poppler passes the /FontName; for sfnts poppler passes the TT_NAME_ID_PS_NAME, which fc explicitly ignores: #if 0 case TT_NAME_ID_PS_NAME: case TT_NAME_ID_UNIQUE_ID: #endif ) Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fontconfig/+bug/130687/comments/3 On 2008-12-17T11:41:09+00:00 Freedesktop wrote: Ah I see.

PS-names and family names are really quite different.

You noticed, thats it's not important, what are you typing in front of Dingbats? You can type lolDingbats or roflDingbats. You're always getting another font. -- fontconfig alias for ZapfDingbats font https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/130687 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for your bug submission. I get the same response under gutsy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/Projects$ fc-match ZapfDingbats DejaVu-Sans.ttf: DejaVu Sans Book Marking as Confirmed. Bugzilla 6478 is marked as FIXED. Evince correctly renders test document that reporter links to. Yet mapping is incorrect in Gutsy. Not sure why there is an incorrect match using fc- match yet evince is working correctly with (presumably) ZapfDingbats font. This seems like a simple-enough fix. ** Changed in: fontconfig (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed -- fontconfig alias for ZapfDingbats font https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/130687 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
