I installed ubuntu-fonts-classic from mantic on my lunar desktop (it's
not available for lunar). It removed ubuntu-fonts, but the fonts look ok
now in google docs. Got some differences in my desktop too, but still
looks ok.

Title:
  [snap] New Ubuntu font with normal weight displayed as bold in Google
  Docs in Chromium after upgrading to Lunar

Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in fonts-ubuntu package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I am experiencing a rendering regression after upgrading from Kinetic to 
Lunar.
  Google Docs using the Ubuntu font family are displayed incorrectly in 
Chromium: the normal weight font is rendered identically to the bold weight 
one, instead of being thicker than light and thinner than medium.

  Printing is also affected, unless I use Google Docs' download to PDF
  function, although that probably triggers a server-side rendering.

  This issue does not occur in Firefox or Google Chrome.

  One thing that may be relevant: if I force-refresh my test Google Doc
  I see all four Ubuntu font lines initially being rendered as bold. The
  light and medium lines are then re-rendered with the correct weight.
  It's as if bold was the default weight and the normal variant
  disappeared.

  As far as I can tell I was already running Chromium 112.0.5615.49 in
  Kinetic, and with Chromium being a snap I don't quite understand why
  the Ubuntu series would matter.

  I have also tried version 114.0.5735.16 (in latest/beta at the
  moment); the symptoms are identical.

  The attachments show the rendering error.
