Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-control-center
Hi,
when viewing font file directories with thunar (e.g.
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont) and mouseklicking a ttf file, a
window opens and shows font samples.
Unfortunately the examples contain only 0-9, a-z, A-Z and .:,;(*!?) and
are restricted to american/ASCII charsets only.
But when living somewhere outside the USA (and there really exists
something outside) other characters of local charsets become relevant
like german öäüÖÄÜß, and it is important to see whether a given font
contains these (or any other) characters.
Propopals:
* use a locale specific text example
* allow to configure the text example in gconf
* allow to enter arbitrary text in a text field to be rendered.
regards
