[Bug 37828] Re: Text rendered incorrectly in presence of ligatures and justified text
This bug is certainly not invalid, so please don't mark it as such. There was ample evidence of the problem. The firefox in Hardy is not exhibiting this bug. Firefox does appear to be using ligatures for editable text for fonts that have them. It does not appear to be using ligatures for other text, so the rendering problems on pages that combine fonts-with-ligatures and justified text are gone. Therefore I'm marking the bug fix released. Having Firefox use the available ligatures would be nice, but is not required (it is another problem and probably best tracked upstream). This is enough to allow Ubuntu's default fonts to contain ligatures without causing rendering errors. ** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = Fix Released -- Text rendered incorrectly in presence of ligatures and justified text https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/37828 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

James, So what makes you think there was a fix for this bug? If there was a fix already upstream bug would have been marked fixed but its not. So since there isnt a fix for it they should all be invalid. Now as for upstream they died on the bug and since this is not a new bug and since the firefox version that was affected at the time was 1.5 and that is no longer supported. If i had to guess the xulrunner is what fixed this bug but didnt fix it just works differently, that isnt really a fix. As for upstream and debian i have already emailed my contacts at both of them and waiting for a reply. Also please understand we(Ubuntu-MozillaTeam) dont do bug states as everyone else does. There is plenty of info on this bug to be confirmed but not fix released since there was never a proper fix to this. Also bugs that are not updated for well over 3 months get Invalid (that goes for mozilla team and bug team) This is by no means to fight or argue with you since it is not the place nor time but i wanted to let you in on how Mozilla team does bugs and that this bug was never fixed if it was upstream/debian bugs would have been closed.

I am unhappy with this workaround because the ligatures worked well in for example Incspape. As a workaround it would have been sufficient not to use DejaVu in Firefox instead of affecting other programs that now suffer from an inferior typographical quality when using DejaVu. This is not a bug in DejaVu but in Firefox, Firefox has still the same problem if a font with ligatures is used like Palatino Linotype for example. -- Text rendered incorrectly in presence of ligatures and justified text https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/37828 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

I would prefer Ben Laenen's proposal to disable ligatures in DejaVu Sans for Gutsy, since it's the last release with this bug anyway.

Bruce: there are a few things to keep in mind here: 1. The pango patch is not part of Mozilla's builds. That said, most Linux distros apply the patch since upstream Firefox fails to render a number of languages they care about. 2. The version of Firefox in Gutsy uses the same rendering engine as the one in Dapper (Gecko 1.8). 3. The Mozilla guys have been working on complex text rendering (using Pango on Linux) for Gecko 1.9, but that won't reach users til Firefox 3.0.

I have encountered this exact bug when I upgraded from Feisty to Gutsy just 3 days ago. I have tried to investigate the nature of the bug and have come to the conclusion that either the DejaVu font set is broken in someway or that firefox renders the text wrongly. I think it relates to the DejaVu font set because when forcing a font through the firefox preferences it appears with both serif and sans- serif versions of DejaVu.

I can't find any other font on my system that create the same problem. It's not a bug in DejaVu, it's a typography feature in DejaVu (ligatures) that triggers a bug in Firefox. See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=331716 . It doesn't happen for the other fonts on your system because they don't have ligatures. -- Text rendered incorrectly in presence of ligatures and justified text https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/37828 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
[Bug 37828] Re: Text rendered incorrectly in presence of ligatures and justified text
It seems like this Firefox bug won't be fixed until Firefox 3.0, which won't be released until November (http://wiki.mozilla.org/ReleaseRoadmap). So, Gutsy Gibbon will ship with a buggy Firefox and we'll have to work around it with DejaVu.

This is still present in Gutsy Gibbon with the latest updates.

[Bug 37828] Re: Text rendered incorrectly in presence of ligatures and justified text
From what I am seeing, this is not restricted to firefox/mozilla. I am seeing the same behaviour with FreeMono in Gedit. I have not tested the other Free fonts, but suspect the behaviour will be the same. As a suspicion, I would suspect that the effect will ultimately be noticed in any application using the Pango font rendering tools. It may be an error in the font itself that Pango is having issues with.

I have not tested the other Free fonts, but suspect the behaviour will be the same. Can you post a screenshot? I doubt that the issues are the same, since Pango generally handles ligatures nicely, and because this bug is produced by some weird Firefox quirks. I think Pango is just confused because it's a monospaced font. The Firefox bug happens with any font that has ligatures (including non-monospaced ones). -- Text rendered incorrectly in presence of ligatures and justified text https://launchpad.net/bugs/37828 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
