I can verify this on my system with the reproduction steps above. Marking as Confirmed, Low.
** Changed in: lmodern (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: lmodern (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed ** Description changed: Binary package hint: lmodern The lmr10 font for X11 is actually the smallcaps version. There is no regular serif face as far as I can tell. + + ================ + + Reproduction steps: + + - Install the lmodern package. + - Open a gnome application that lets you set the fonts. In this + reproduction scenario I will use Open Office. + - Set the font to LMRoman10. + - Type to notice that the font used is all caps. + + Desired result: + + It should not be all caps. The all caps font is a different font + (*NOT* LMRoman10 -- I forget off hand which one it is). The + applications are choosing the incorrect font. + + Discussion: + + This happens with every Gnome applications (and IIRC KDE applications + as well). However, if you use a straight X-Lib application like + xfontsel, it doesn't happen -- the correct font is chosen. This leads + me to believe that the problem is with font-config rather than the + application itself. However, I haven't done any work to verify my + suspicion. + + Contrast with: + + - Run xfontsel + - Select -*-latin modern roman-*-r-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* + - Notice that lower case letters exist (i.e., it isn't an all caps font) -- Doesn't include regular serif font. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123788 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
