I'm assuming you are speaking of ( https://github.com/googlei18n/noto-cjk/blob/master/NotoSansMonoCJKsc-Regular.otf ) and if so here are some of the problems. 1) Its only a sans font 2) Its only a mono space font 3) Its only 4) It only covers CJK in simplified chinese 5) It only has regular and we need bold, italic and bold italic Its unicode coverage is the same as most other fonts - latin, greek, cyrillic - but also has cjk. > And then bundle additional license suitable fonts as a single optional > package/extension with a rudimentary installer to allow users to some > "guided" choices for the fonts they need to add. Bundling an additional font pack is definitely useful, but doubt we should place them all into one package, but instead we should break it up into different useful packages for different purposes. We shouldnt ask non-cjk users to download a large cjk font file if they arent going to use it. > Guided in the sense for > example that Linux systems need Carlito, Caladea while Windows installs do > not. Of course Carlito and Caladea would be needed on windows when documents were created on linux with them and then those documents opened on windows. > Maintain that package/extension as its own project removed from core. I've been thinking that we could add these additional font packages to a webpage that would be available at Download > LibreOffice Font Packages, which would be underneath LibreOffice Still in the website tree. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Libreoffice-ux-advise mailing list Libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-ux-advise
