Summary: ACCESSIBILITY: UI font can't be changed to Terminus
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux (All)
Reporter: [email protected]

Whiteboard: BSA
Status: UNCONFIRMED

OpenOffice 1.1.5 shows selection Terminus font for UI and displaying UI using
this font.
Problem description:
I need to use Terminus font for User Interface (UI). It is impossible to do
with any version of LibreOffice/OpenOffice, except OpenOffice 1.1.5 without
Java. OpenOffice 1.1.5 works as expected: Font substitution table allows to
select Terminus, and UI text changed to Terminus, as should. OpenOffice 2.2.0
and laters, not work anymore: Terminus font not exist in font list; when typing
it manually, nothing happens, UI font not changed.
I can't bisect more precisely between 1.1.5 and 2.2 to find critical version,
because i don't have these versions of OO suite.
This is a serious/blocking bug. I can't use OpenOffice 1.1.5 because it is not
supported anymore and have incompatible file format.
Steps to reproduce:
1. sudo apt-get install xfonts-terminus
2. Read how to change UI font
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Font-FAQ#How_can_I_change_OpenOffice.org_2.27s_user_interface_font.3F
3. Select 'Andale sans UI' at left, and note, selection of 'Terminus' font
impossible at right, for versions OO above 1.1.5
4. But still, try to manually write 'Terminus' at right, Apply (add or update)
rule
5. Restart program and see nothing changes in UI font.
6. Try to check and uncheck 'Use system font for user UI' and see nothing
changes again. Font used for UI always same, unknown, and wrong.
7. For OO 1.1.5, these steps will work, please see screenshot.
Current behavior:
Use 'Terminus' font for UI impossible via font substitution.
Automatic use system font not work, when system-wide font is Terminus (and all
other software (include ever Qt) work fine with it).
Expected behavior:
UI should match all other software and be able to use system font.
Please note, i report about LTS version of Ubuntu ("Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS").
