Package: scalable-cyrfonts-tex
Version: 4.12
Severity: important
I reported my problem to typeset a bilingual (bulgarian/german) document
in LaTeX using Times as the font for both german and bulgarian text to
the comp.text.tex newsgroup, where I got told to file this bug. The
discussion is accessible via:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.text.tex/browse_thread/thread/eb34d41ce4fbf182/7acea2ccf25b419b#7acea2ccf25b419b
To summarize the problem, both the german sharp s and the polish l with
a stroke display as a black box in the final document when using
cyrtimes. This means that the T1 encoding of this font is at least
partially broken (I did not run exhaustive tests).
Regards,
Matthias Noe
