https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64509 Ulrich Windl changed: What|Removed |Added CC||ulrich.wi...@rz.uni-regensb ||urg.de --- Comment #15 from Ulrich Windl --- The problem with a font substitution table is that, while fonts are similar, they are not the same. Even if the glyphs look identical, there my be significant differences in kerning information. So what the use typically sees if a font is missing and was substituted, is an ugly or broken layout (caused by different kerning, character spacing, or line spacing). (You can see this effect in PDFs also where the kerning information is basically hard-coded (glyphs positioned absolutely), but the fonts can be missing.) My personal preference over a manually edited (and probably huge) font substitution table is using typeface information (like PANOSE (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PANOSE)) to find ou which fonts are similar to each other. I don't know whether Windows or other OSes support it, but I remember that Smalltalk-80 had it in the 80ies ;-) Of course the usefulness of typeface metadata depend on its accuracy. If people just copy it blindly from another font, it will be hardly useful... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64509 --- Comment #12 from QA Administrators --- ** Please read this message in its entirety before responding ** To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so: 1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ 2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo'; 4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://kiwiirc.com/nextclient/irc.freenode.net/#libreoffice-qa Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

So on those platforms this is "taken care of", and on MacOSX there's a similar built-in MacOSX thing I believe. The remaining issue is Windows, there we use our built-in tables in registry/data/org/openoffice/VCL.xcu (http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/officecfg/registry/data/org/openoffice/VCL.xcu) see near the end, the section starting with so we should already have the bitstreamverasans replacements for example. It shouldn't be too hard to add to add extra entries or improve the existing ones. Not something for me though, seeing as it doesn't affect the platform I develop on. I suggest you have a go at adding what entries are missing there from your own list and submit the result to us.
