Public bug reported: Ubuntu/Xubuntu 18.04 package includes fonts "Liberation Sans" (etc "Liberation") with sligtly shrinked font metrics. This issue leads to all office documents typed in Liberation Sans fonts have corrupted formatting in Ubuntu 18.04 (but these documents correctly opened in other OS's, for example Ubuntu 17.10). Documents with corrupted formatting can not print properly: all paragraphs are shifted up, embedded tables in text - splitted on page breaks. Document circulation in system based on Ubuntu 18.04 operating systems temporarily paralized, because Liberation fonts are basic fonts for open-source document circulation.
In attachment I have type a example office document with 2 pages and enumerated strings. On normal ordinary conditions this document have 54 strings on first page and 54 string on second page. But if this document open in Ubuntu 18.04, it's found than 5 strings from second page moves to first page. Compare font versions embedded with Ubuntu packages we can see that versions are different (sudo apr search fonts-liberation* command): Ubuntu 17.10 - 1:1.07.4-2, 2.00.1-3 Ubuntu 18.04 - 1:1.07.4-5, 2.00.1-5 I have create a bug 117411 "Font metrics slightly changed after update OS to Ubuntu 18.04", see https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=117411, but I think that this bug concerns a Ubuntu/Xubuntu 18.04 package. ** Affects: libreoffice (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: font metrics ** Attachment added: "Text example with corrupted formatting" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1769654/+attachment/5135450/+files/20180503%20-%20Text%20Example.odt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1769654 Title: Ubuntu 18.04 embedded fonts Liberation have corrupted metrics Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Ubuntu/Xubuntu 18.04 package includes fonts "Liberation Sans" (etc "Liberation") with sligtly shrinked font metrics.
