Updating the unsolicited feedback with more information; I found that
other people have had troubles with fonts and upgrading fc25 -> fc26
(i.e.
https://utcc.utoronto.ca/~cks/space/blog/linux/Fedora26FontDilemma), and
I'm working to understand what happened to my configurations.

I checked that the customized template with Samsung Printer Drivers do
indeed work and print, and also LibreOffice and Pinta work just as usual
- albeit with the messed up font rendering.
