--- Comment #31 from David Baron [:dbaron] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 2008-03-04 22:08:03 PST --- The question is whether font-stretch is more like font-style (normal / oblique / italic) or font-weight (normal / bold / etc.). For font-style if the font-family given doesn't have an italic font, the family is supposed to lose. For font-weight, the closest weight available is chosen. The CSS2 spec (which describes font-stretch) doesn't say anything at all, but I suspect font-stretch ought to act more like font-weight (in other words, I agree with comment 29). (See http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/fonts.html#algorithm for the most current work, but in a spec that doesn't have font stretch. Also see http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-fonts/#font-properties and http://www.w3.org/TR/1998/REC-CSS2-19980512/fonts.html#algorithm although neither answers the question despite the specs having font-stretch. I haven't actually checked if any of this is how things really work.) That said, implementing it would let authors get to fonts that they can't currently get to, and we probably should do so for that reason. But it's not a top priority (which bug was filed first doesn't imply which bug is more important to fix), and we generally try to avoid implementing things on only one platform. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-fonts-bugs-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-fonts-bugs-list
