Summary: Hinting on 'cent' glyph in italic fonts broken Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: low Component: liberation-fonts AssignedTo: psatpute@redhat.com ReportedBy: cody@zone38.net QAContact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: petersen@redhat.com, fonts-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org, psatpute@redhat.com, i18n-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org Classification: Fedora
Created an attachment (id=436160) --> (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=436160) Screenshot of the cent glyph as displayed in OpenOffice.
Description of problem: The character 'cent' (¢) has been modified in Liberation Mono and Liberation Sans without regenerating hints, as has already been discussed in bug 474522.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.06.0.20100721
How reproducible: Consistently, as long as bytecode hinting has been turned on.
Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use a version of Freetype with bytecode hinting enabled. 2. Make sure that hinting is set to 'full' in your window manager's appearance preferences. 3. Enter the character ¢ (U+00A2) in an application such as OpenOffice. 4. Set the font to Liberation Sans Italic or Liberation Mono Italic.
Actual results: The cent sign looks correct.
Expected results: The cent sign is warped beyond recognition.
