Bug ID: 162872
Summary: Use "Source Sans Pro" as replacement font for "Aptos"
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 25.2.0.0 alpha0+
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice

Shapes with text to compare font metrics
Current MS Office uses as default the font "Aptos". This font is often not
available on the user PC. Even if someone has installed a MS Office, the font
files are not automatically installed, but MS Office downloads them when
needed. Thus in most cases the font is not available for LibreOffice.
The font "Source Sans Pro" is a good candidate for fallback for "Aptos" and
should be tested first. The "Source Sans Pro" has letter-spacing and line
distance similar to "Aptos". The font "Source Sans Pro" is free available, so
that users can install it. When "Source Sans Pro" is not available on the users
PC, still another sans-serif font can be chosen, but "Source Sans Pro" should
be the first font to test.
The attached file contains the same text and shapes only with different font.
The first line has the shapes and the second line has a screenshot. I work on
Windows 11 and all four used fonts are installed.
