[Bug 176392] Re: "Sans Italic" is noticably thinner than "Sans"
In comparing the source files for ttf-dejavu on gutsy and hardy, it appears the issue is that the debian/ttf-dejavu-extra.defoma-hints file for Gutsy had a fix from Arne to correct Oblique vs Italic for Serif fonts, which is missing on Hardy. On hardy it appears the package was sync'd to debian without merging the ubuntu patch. Assigning to Arne to investigate further. It appears that the changes he made for Ubuntu in Gutsy need to be ported to the Hardy version of the package (and perhaps pushed back up to Debian). $ diff -u /tmp/ttf-dejavu-extra.defoma-hints debian/ttf-dejavu-extra.defoma-hints --- /tmp/ttf-dejavu-extra.defoma-hints 2008-01-29 09:39:16.110311167 -0800 +++ debian/ttf-dejavu-extra.defoma-hints2008-01-29 09:35:07.0 -0800 @@ -116,7 +116,7 @@ GeneralFamily = Roman Weight = Medium Width = Variable - Shape = Serif Oblique + Shape = Serif Italic Foundry = DejaVu Priority = 20 end @@ -130,7 +130,7 @@ GeneralFamily = Roman Weight = Bold Width = Variable - Shape = Serif Oblique + Shape = Serif Italic Foundry = DejaVu Priority = 20 end @@ -175,7 +175,7 @@ GeneralFamily = Roman Weight = Medium Width = Variable - Shape = Serif Oblique Condensed + Shape = Serif Italic Condensed Foundry = DejaVu Priority = 20 end @@ -189,7 +189,7 @@ GeneralFamily = Roman Weight = Bold Width = Variable - Shape = Serif Oblique Condensed + Shape = Serif Italic Condensed Foundry = DejaVu Priority = 20 end ** Changed in: fontconfig (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Arne Goetje (arnegoetje) -- "Sans Italic" is noticably thinner than "Sans" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/176392 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I notice the number of installed DejaVu fonts has changed from gutsy to hardy, and wonder if that may be contributing to the problem. Copying over the dejavu fonts from my gutsy box to my hardy box, and running `fc-cache -fv` made fc-match return the same as on Gutsy: $ fc-match sans:italic DejaVuSans-Oblique.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Oblique" Yet firefox is still displaying the test case incorrectly, so it must be something else. -- "Sans Italic" is noticably thinner than "Sans" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/176392 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 176392] Re: "Sans Italic" is noticably thinner than "Sans"
I have noticed, when browsing /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu, that the DejaVuSansCondensed-Oblique.ttf font (whose name suggests it is the "Condensed Oblique" type, has metadata describing it as being the "Condensed Book" face. The actual font itself is definitely Condensed Oblique, so it just looks like a metadata error.

[Bug 176392] Re: "Sans Italic" is noticably thinner than "Sans"
I am really confused as to what is going on with the DejaVu Sans typeface. Sans has four "styles" listed in the GTK font selector: Regular, Italic, Bold, Bold Italic. Bitstream Vera has: Roman, Oblique, Bold, Bold Oblique. DejaVu Sans has: ExtraLight (works) Condensed (works) Book (works, i.e. Regular/Roman) Oblique (works fine!) Condensed Book (seems like it should be Condensed Oblique, as it is italicized) Condensed Bold (works) Condensed Bold (AGAIN? Also works, but strange that it appears twice) Bold (works) Bold Oblique (works) So it's strange that there is no Condensed Oblique style, yet Condensed Book seems to fit the bill, and it is selected when you choose "DejaVu Sans", "Italic".

Do you still have this problem? I have tried to reproduce it, but it seems like DejaVu Sans condensed is not in the font catalogue.

I tried setting my desktop fonts all to DejaVu Sans to remove the ambiguity, but it seems that programs (in particular notification- daemon) are still using an italic form of Condensed rather than the Italic variant. So maybe this is a bug in DejaVu Sans. I also notice that there is no Condensed Italic, and Condensed Bold is in fact listed twice.
