[Bug 24764] Re: Wrong font names
According to upstream comments this issue was solved under fontconfig 2.4.2 and now under Ubuntu Lucid we are in 2.8.0 so I will mark this report as Fix Released.

There is a legitimate reason for this though. Not all applications can properly deal with large font families (more than Regular, Italic, Bold, BoldItalic). I've seen OpenOffice.org/Inkscape break on large families, where different weights of fonts would get confused. The font family setting can be checked using a tool like fontforge. I agree with your statements, but as mentioned the KDE font tools don't have nearly so much a problem with it, so there may still be something that can be done here.

[Bug 24764] Re: Wrong font names
I have this problem with fontconfig 2.4.2 on gutsy. I have the full set of Adobe Helvetica and the font choice is badly mangled, me being unable to choose the actual font I want, and various web pages looking absolutely foul as they use Helvetica Bold Oblique instead of Helvetica. ** Changed in: fontconfig (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed -- Wrong font names https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/24764 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Seems like a known issue in fontconfig 2.3 that may have been fixed in 2.4? http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/fontconfig/2005-October/001645.html https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4924 -- Wrong font names https://launchpad.net/bugs/24764 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
