** Attachment added: "g_non_emb.pdf" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/poppler/+bug/769827/+attachment/2086089/+files/g_non_emb.pdf ** Description changed: poppler library cannot parse font weight "Medium". Therefore in Japanese(ja) locale, characters which are not font-embedded but specified as "GothicBBB" are shown as squares and not readable. See attached screenshot. + https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/poppler/+bug/769827/+attachment/2086084/+files/actual.png GothicBBB is widely used as Japanese sans-serif(gothic) font. It has the full name "GothicBBB-Medium-Identity-{H,V}" in properties window on such as Evince. But poppler library cannot parse "Medium" string, so does not hit <string>GothicBBB</string> in fontconfig settings on /etc/fonts/conf.d/69-language-selector-ja-jp.conf. On the other hand, Ryumin which is widely used as Japanese serif(mincho) font has the name "Ryumin-Light-Identity-{H,V}", but does hit <string>Ryumin</string>. How to reproduce: - 1. intall Ubuntu in Japanese(ja) locale - 2. confirm poppler-data, ttf-takao-{mincho,gothic} installed and "/etc/fonts/conf.d/69-language-selector-ja-jp.conf -> /etc/fonts/conf.avail/69-language-selector-ja-jp.conf" symlink created. - 3. open attached PDF file + 1. intall Ubuntu in Japanese(ja) locale + 2. confirm poppler-data, ttf-takao-{mincho,gothic} installed and "/etc/fonts/conf.d/69-language-selector-ja-jp.conf -> /etc/fonts/conf.avail/69-language-selector-ja-jp.conf" symlink created. + 3. open attached PDF file + https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/poppler/+bug/769827/+attachment/2086089/+files/g_non_emb.pdf Expected: - all characters are showed properly + all characters are showed properly + https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/poppler/+bug/769827/+attachment/2086087/+files/expected.png Actual: - upper-right characters which are specified as GothicBBB are showed as squares + upper-right characters which are specified as GothicBBB are showed as squares + https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/poppler/+bug/769827/+attachment/2086084/+files/actual.png ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.04 Package: poppler-utils 0.16.4-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.38-8.42-generic 2.6.38.2 Uname: Linux 2.6.38-8-generic i686 Architecture: i386 Date: Sun Apr 24 10:09:07 2011 LiveMediaBuild: Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Release i386 (20110423) ProcEnviron: - LANGUAGE=ja_JP:en - LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 - SHELL=/bin/bash + LANGUAGE=ja_JP:en + LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 + SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: poppler UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to poppler in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/769827 Title: poppler cannot parse font weight "Medium" -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
