  I don't know whether it is an ubuntu bug or a firefox bug but since I
  am running the mozilla-supported ubuntu snap of firefox 99.0.1 (on
  22.04 jammy) (firefox 100 not yet available on snap), posting it here.

  Many pdfs have messed-up fonts on this firefox. Following a reddit
  thread, I tried disabling browser.display.use_document_fonts in
  about:config. Then the pdfs render correctly, but html webpages have
  messed-up fonts.

  someone else says it doesn't happen on Mint (based on Ubuntu but I

The issue is being discussed on https://github.com/ubuntu/gnome-

$ mkdir ~/snap/firefox/current/.config/fontconfig/conf.d; cp

2022-06-16 Thread Miguel Rodríguez
I think the issue is that the firefox snap is not able to find
substitutes for the default pdf fonts when they are not embedded in the
document. PDF documents with embedded fonts render fine with the snap.

Actual results:

poor fonts are being displayed



Expected results:

should have included "original" fonts by default?

this could be achieved after going to

about:config (in adress bar)
setting "browser.display.use_document_fonts" to "0"  instead of "1"

should be default behaviour, or am i wrong?

Thanks for reporting!

I tried to reproduce this issue using Firefox 91.5.1esr and Beta 97 on Ubuntu 
20.04, but unfortunately I didn’t manage to recreate the situation.
Upon changing the setting "browser.display.use_document_fonts" to "0" instead 
of "1" though, using Firefox 91.5.1esr, I refreshed the web pages and the pages 
were blank.

Can you please mention the Firefox version you're using? And can you
also attach a screenshot of the occurring issue?

I will mark this issue as NEW since I managed to reproduce it on Ubuntu 18.04 
using Firefox 91.5.1esr, Firefox 96 and Nightly 98.0a1. 
The issue was not reproducible on Ubuntu 20.04 though.

Update: this problem does not occur with firefox-trunk (version

Steps to reproduce:

My setup is Firefox 99.0.1 snap on Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy. I filed an Ubuntu bug 
but they said the firefox snap is from upstream and sent me here. 
I opened 
http://www.wormbook.org/chapters/www_intromethodscellbiology/intromethodscellbiology.pdf
 and the fonts are wrong and spacing is ugly. 

Over on reddit people suggested disabling use document fonts
(browser.display.use_document_fonts=0) and that fixed it; but for html
pages it uses the wrong fonts then.

Also on reddit, someone said reproducible in a Ubuntu VM; someone else
said, not reproducible on Linux Mint, which is based on Ubuntu but
doesn't use snaps.


Actual results:

Ugly fonts. Results in first image here

Beautiful fonts. Second image here

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1971608] Re: Firefox PDF font rendering is often messed up

2022-05-06 Thread Sebastien Bacher
Thanks for reporting the issue upstream. Could you check if firefox
prints any warning when showing the document, if started from a cmdline?

could you do

$ journalctl -f

display the pdf, and copy here any warning that could be displayed in
the log?

Bug description:
  I don't know whether it is an ubuntu bug or a firefox bug but since I
  am running the mozilla-supported ubuntu snap of firefox 99.0.1 (on
  22.04 jammy) (firefox 100 not yet available on snap), posting it here.

  Many pdfs have messed-up fonts on this firefox. Following a reddit
  thread, I tried disabling browser.display.use_document_fonts in
  about:config. Then the pdfs render correctly, but html webpages have
  messed-up fonts.

2022-05-05 Thread Rahul
Thank you for changing the "invalid" status. Here is the upstream bug
report https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1767925

Since it is not seen by mint users I am guessing it is an issue with
snap.

I just updated to firefox 100 (ubuntu snap), the bug remains.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and help make Ubuntu

not be aware of this issue. Please contact them via
https://support.mozilla.org/kb/file-bug-report-or-feature-request-
mozilla and link the bug report here so it can be further tracked, then
re-mark the bug as new. Thank you!
