Classification: Fedora
Cloning to focus on the Droid specific issue here. please ignore URW related
description.
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #2062386 +++
Description of problem:
Sometimes, when using a native font stack in CSS on a web page, fonts that are
not in the font stack at all are substituted for the desired fonts.
This only seems to affect web pages viewed using:
- Fedora (not Ubuntu, Debian 11, or Manjaro)
- Firefox (not Chrome or Chromium)
- When using the RPM version or Mozilla's official build from their website
(not the Flatpak)
Happens in the stable version of Firefox, Firefox Beta, and Firefox nightly.
Two substitutions I've identified so far:
- Droid Sans is substituted for Open Sans
- P052 is substituted for 'URW Palladio L' or Palatino
Substituting for Palatino may be less objectionable, since that's a generic
choice, but URW Palladio L is rather specific and it's surprising to see the
substitution. This also wouldn't be as objectionable if the font substitutions
were better. Droid Sans doesn't look much like Open Sans at all, and P052 looks
really ugly (it has unevenly sized letters). In Firefox Flatpak, it instead
substitutes the better-looking 'TeX Gyre Pagella', and only does that for
Palatino, not for 'URW Palladio L' (which was higher priority in my font
stack). This is more desirable behavior.
The source of the problem seems to be that if you run the following command:
fc-match :family="Open Sans"
It returns Droid Sans.

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1406790
How reproducible:
Consistently
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a clean Fedora 35 install, and verify that Open Sans is not installed.
2. Create the following web page and view it in a browser:
```
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title></title>
<style>
h1,h2,h3,h4 {
font-family: Open Sans, Fira Sans;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello World</h1>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.</p>
</body>
</html>
```
Alternately, view a real live (but more complex) website at
https://www.maximumethics.dev/
Actual results:
Notice that the text on the webpage is displayed in Droid Sans, not Open Sans.
Expected results:
The webpage displays the next available font in the font stack, Fira Sans in
this case, or the browser's default font if you don't have Fira Sans.
--- Additional comment from Akira TAGOH on 2022-03-30 09:26:08 UTC ---
Well, maybe good to file a separate bug to object each substitutions.
For Open Sans, google-droid-sans-fonts has the following config:
<alias binding="same">
<family>Open Sans</family>
<accept>
<family>Droid Sans</family>
</accept>
</alias>
This is the reason why you see that behavior.
For URW Palladio L, urw-base35-fonts-common has the following config:
<alias binding="same">
<family>URW Palladio L</family>
<accept>
<family>P052</family>
</accept>
</alias>
And finally for Palatino, it is in urw-base35-p052-fonts:
<alias binding="same">
<family>Palatino</family>
<accept>
<family>P052</family>
</accept>
</alias>
Although those urw config are coming from upstream. so if you have any
objections for them, it would be good to talk with URW upstream.

Target Milestone: ---
Classification: Fedora
Description of problem:
When installing a Japanese font locally (using gnome font viewer, which
effectively copies to ~/.local/share/fonts/), with the default fontconfig, all
kana in the system uses that font.
However, it only affects certain applications. Firefox (rpm) and Inkscape
(flatpak) is affected, but gwrite is not.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
fontconfig-2.14.0-3.fc37.x86_64
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download the following font:
http://font.sumomo.ne.jp/fontdata-c2157415/k-font.zip
2. Unzip and install by double-clicking the font in nautilus and clicking
install.
3. Restart Firefox or Inkscape and paste "です” in a field with sans-serif or
system-ui font
Actual results:
Text appears with the new font
Expected results:
Text appears with the normal system font
Additional info:
Running pango-view, e.g. the following, works fine and selects a reasonable
font (Droid Sans Japanese):
FC_DEBUG=4 pango-view --font="system-ui" -t です | grep family

Hello,
I was wondering if you could update the packages "sil-charis-fonts" and
"sil-charis-compact-fonts" to their latest versions? The current ones seem to
be quite outdated.
The newest Charis SIL font is available here:
https://software.sil.org/charis
and the compact version is here: https://software.sil.org/lcgfonts/download
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Reproducible: Always

A screenshot of dmesg in Alacritty with Source Code Pro selected
Description of problem:
Source Code Pro version 2.030, currently packaged for all versions of Fedora
and in EPEL, includes an SVG table that causes the freetype library to be
unable to calculate cell height, resulting in unusable output with lines
stacked on top of each other.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.030.1.050-<any>
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install adobe-source-code-pro-fonts and alacritty (a terminal emulator that
uses freetype through the crossfont crate) from the current release versions.
2. Configure alacritty to use Source Code Pro. Example config:
~/.config/alacritty/alacritty.yml:
```yaml
font:
normal:
family: Source Code Pro
style: Regular
bold:
family: Source Code Pro
style: Bold
italic:
family: Source Code Pro
style: Italic
bolt_italic:
family: Source Code Pro
style: Bold Italic
size: 10
```
3. Launch alacritty and attempt to use the terminal
Actual results:
The terminal is completely unusable with 1px line height, although the font is
rendering at the correct size.
Expected results:
The terminal has a normal font display behavior and is usable.
Additional info:
2.038 is available and appears to fix the issue
(https://github.com/adobe-fonts/source-code-pro/releases)
