Glyphs for Telugu nakaarapollu and repha
Telugu script has special form of vowelless NA called four-pronged
nakaarapollu. Strictly speaking nakaarapollu means nakaara + pollu=virama so
regular form of vowelless-NA న్ is also nakaarapollu but Telugu old grammarian
Brown has specifically called a distinct form as nakaarapollu.
The recommended model for getting Telugu nakaarapollu is NA + ZWJ + VIRAMA.
Please find more details in the document:
https://sites.google.com/site/jamadagni/files/utcsubmissions/11409-telugu...
Likewise Telugu script has old repha form which is not found in common usage in
current Telugu script. A modern-style Telugu font can allow user to select
old-style reph by using the sequence RA + VIRAMA + ZWJ + CONSONANT because the
plain RA + VIRAMA + CONSONANT would be presented as RA with sub-base form of
CONSONANT.
Please find more details in the document:
https://sites.google.com/site/jamadagni/files/utcsubmissions/12017-telugu...
These two documents have been approved by the UTC in the Feb 2012 meeting:
http://www.unicode.org/L2/L2012/12007.htm
<quote>
[130-A15] Action Item for Deborah Anderson, Editorial Committee: Update the
core specification text on Telugu nakaara-pollu based on input in document
L2/11-409.
[130-A16] Action Item for Deborah Anderson: Incorporate text on Telugu Reph
from L2/12-017 into the Telugu block description.
</quote>
It is requested to:
1) add the glyphs for nakaarapollu and repha to the Lohit Telugu font:
2) add substitution mapping of NA + ZWJ + VIRAMA to the nakaarapollu glyph
3) add requisite OT markups for repha glyph so that a compliant OT system can
recognize the repha glyph and render sequence of RA + VIRAMA + ZWJ + CONS using
that glyph.

[Bug 1076190] New: Rendering of Unicode tie bars could be improved
by Red Hat Bugzilla
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1076190
Bug ID: 1076190
Summary: Rendering of Unicode tie bars could be improved
Product: Fedora
Version: 20
Component: liberation-fonts
Severity: low
Assignee: psatpute(a)redhat.com
Reporter: rkaldari(a)wikimedia.org
QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
CC: fonts-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org,

Created attachment 874108
--> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=874108&action=edit
comparison between Liberation Sans and Helvetica
Description of problem:
The rendering of the two Unicode tie bar combining characters (U+035E and
U+035F) is not ideal. In particular the characters are quite short and far away
from the characters they are tying together. This makes it appear more like a
misplaced macron than a tie bar. The rendering in Liberation Sans appears to be
equivalent to that of Arial which has the same issues. The rendering in
Helvetica is better (see attachment 1).
In particular, because the under tie bar (U+035F) is so far away from the other
characters, it sometimes gets clipped when rendered, as it appears to fall
slightly outside of the bounding box for the line height (see attachment 2).
My suggestion would be to make the length of both tie bars slightly longer, and
to move both of them slightly closer to the characters they are intended to tie
together.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
12-Mar-2014 (2.x)
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install latest Liberation Sans (and Helvetica if you want to compare)
2. Go to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Kaldari/Font_test_2
Actual results:
Tie bars should be slightly longer and closer to the other characters.
Expected results:
Tie bar are quite short and far away.
Additional info:
See attachments for more info.

[Bug 1084227] New: Arrow symbols too small and not nicely aligned

testcase with some exemplary arrows
The arrow symbols contained in Liberation fonts seem to be too small and also a
little mis-aligned.
As an example consider the attached testcase which contains left/right/up/down
arrows exemplarily. The attached screenshot is a rendering of this file to
illustrate the issue:
- The arrows are much to small making them hardly discernible,
especially at small font sizes.
- The horizontally aligned arrows are positioned too low (nearly at the
baseline).
- Also visible: Hinting for the vertically aligned arrows is bad.
The screenshot was created with Firefox 28.0 on Windows 7.
The installed version of the Liberation fonts is 2.00.1

[Bug 1319249] New: incorrect use of Requires(pre)?
by Red Hat Bugzilla
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1319249
Bug ID: 1319249
Summary: incorrect use of Requires(pre)?
Product: Fedora
Version: rawhide
Component: ghostscript-fonts
Assignee: twaugh(a)redhat.com
Reporter: jsilhan(a)redhat.com
QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
CC: fonts-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, twaugh(a)redhat.com
We've identified your package for having `Requires(pre)` RPM flag without
`Requires` [1]. `Requires(pre)` rpm tag could be interpreted wrongly, so to
prevent any harm to Fedora users I am notifying you about this fact.
Any package that is specified in `Requires(pre)` could be freely removed.
Citing from RPM pages:
```
If there are no other dependencies on the package providing /usr/sbin/useradd,
that package is permitted to be removed from the system after installation(!)
``` [2]
If you really rely on dependency just during the installation process and your
package don't necessary require the dependency for the proper run of your
application then ignore this bug report and close it as NOTABUG. Otherwise add
to your spec file additional `Requires` for the dependency, please.

[Bug 477389] New: Please convert to new font packaging guidelines
by Red Hat Bugzilla
Please do not reply directly to this email. All additional
comments should be made in the comments box of this bug.
Summary: Please convert to new font packaging guidelines
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=477389
Summary: Please convert to new font packaging guidelines
Product: Fedora
Version: rawhide
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: medium
Priority: medium
Component: ghostscript-fonts
AssignedTo: twaugh(a)redhat.com
ReportedBy: nicolas.mailhot(a)laposte.net
QAContact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
CC: twaugh(a)redhat.com, fedora-fonts-bugs-list(a)redhat.com
Classification: Fedora
This bug has been filed because we've detected your package includes one or
several font files:
repoquery -C --repoid=rawhide -f '*.ttf' -f '*.otf' -f '*.pfb'
-f '*.pfa' --qf='%{SOURCERPM}\n' |sed -e
's+-[0-9.-]*\.fc[123456789]\(.*\)src.rpm++g'|sort|uniq
Unfortunately the script
does not detect symlinks to other packages, so if that's your case, you can
close this bug report now.
Otherwise, you should know that:
- Fedora guidelines
demand the packaging of fonts in a separate package or subpackage:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Avoid_bundling_of_font...
- our font packaging guidelines recently changed, and every package that ships
fonts must be adapted to the new templates available in the fontpackages-devel
package.
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/Fonts_packaging_automation_...
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_fonts_policy_package
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Simple_fonts_spec_template
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fonts_spec_template_for_multiple_fonts
Please make
your package conform to the current guidelines in rawhide.
If your package is not
principaly a font package, depending on a separate font package or subpackage
is the prefered solution. If your application does not use fontconfig you can
always package symlinks to the files provided by the font package and installed
in the correct fontconfig directories.
It is preferred to make a font package or
subpackage per font family, though it is not currently a hard guidelines
requirement (it may become before Fedora 11 is released). The definition of a
font family is given on
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fonts_spec_template_notes/font-family
The new
templates should make the creation of font subpackages easy and safe.
The
following packages have already been converted and can serve as examples: -
andika-fonts - apanov-heuristica-fonts - bitstream-vera-fonts - charis-fonts -
dejavu-fonts - ecolier-court-fonts - edrip-fonts - gfs-ambrosia-fonts -
gfs-artemisia-fonts - gfs-baskerville-fonts - gfs-bodoni-classic-fonts -
gfs-bodoni-fonts - gfs-complutum-fonts - gfs-didot-classic-fonts -
gfs-didot-fonts - gfs-eustace-fonts - gfs-fleischman-fonts - gfs-garaldus-fonts
- gfs-gazis-fonts - gfs-jackson-fonts - gfs-neohellenic-fonts -
gfs-nicefore-fonts - gfs-olga-fonts - gfs-porson-fonts - gfs-solomos-fonts -
gfs-theokritos-fonts - stix-fonts - yanone-kaffeesatz-fonts
If you have any remaining
questions about the new guidelines please ask them on fedora-fonts-list at
