Priority: medium
Bug ID: 82227
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: Do not replace fonts silently
Severity: enhancement
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.2.5.2 release
Component: framework
Product: LibreOffice
When migrating to a new system or OS, you'll have to install all the fonts that
your documents use on the new system. However LibreOffice does not help you
here:
1) When a font is missing, LibreOffice uses a different font (Courier?)
_without_ any message showing up.
2) There is no built-in "list used fonts" or "show current font replacements"
(fonts that LibreOffice silently replaced by other fonts)
So I suggest:
1) Implement something like a LibreOffice "Console" that can show informational
messages or warnings when the user wants to look for these (would also help
debugging and problem reporting, I guess)
2) Indicate if some fonts of a document opened are missing
3) Allow the user to list all fonts a document requested (I'm not using the
word "uses" here, as the fonts could have been replaced already)
4) If 3) would also indicate missing or substituted fonts, it would be great.
5) You can print the styles your document uses (that function is hidden
extremely well). I think the fonts a document uses are also a part of its style
and should be included as well, possibly also with all sizes of the font being
used.
