** Summary changed: - inconsistent weight in roman numerals + inconsistent glyphs for roman numerals
** Description changed: Binary package hint: ttf-dejavu-core - The glyph for the character Ⅺ (roman numeral eleven) is much bolder - than the glyph for the character Ⅸ (roman numeral nine) in DejaVu Serif - Medium Regular. These glyphs should be symmetric. + The glyph for the character Ⅺ (Roman numeral eleven) is absent from the + font DejaVu Serif Medium Regular. The glyph substituted from the font + FreeSans is much bolder than the glyph for the character Ⅸ (Roman + numeral nine). These glyphs should be symmetric. + + The glyph for the character Ⅺ (Roman numeral eleven) is much shorter + than the glyph for the character Ⅸ (Roman numeral nine) in DejaVu Sans + Mono Medium Regular. These glyphs should be symmetric. + + The glyph for the character ⅺ (lower case Roman numeral eleven) is both + taller and bolder than the glyph for the character ⅸ (Roman numeral + nine) in DejaVu Sans Mono Medium Regular. These glyphs should be + symmetric. Ubuntu 7.10 Version: 2.19-1ubuntu3 + + These irregularities can be fixed in two ways: + EITHER let FreeSans precede DejaVu in font substitution order (which is a dramatic change in how everything looks like) + OR add the missing glyphs to DejaVu. + + The sample attached shows that the glyph for Ⅸ is taken from DejaVu (probably), + the glyph for Ⅹ is taken from ＭＳ 明朝 and the glyph for Ⅺ is taken from FreeSerif. It is unacceptable. ** Attachment added: "serif.zip" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/12764512/serif.zip -- inconsistent glyphs for roman numerals https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/204339 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
