Bug ID: 2258723
Summary: Variable fonts packages dont include all axis
Product: Fedora
Version: 39
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Component: google-noto-fonts
Keywords: RFE
Severity: low
Assignee: tagoh(a)redhat.com
Reporter: sharpenedblade(a)proton.me
QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org

Target Milestone: ---
Classification: Fedora
The *-vf packages package files from the `slim-variable-ttf` dir, which do not
include every axis available for the font. Variable font files with all
supported axis are in `variable-ttf` dir instead.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install `google-noto-sans-vf`
2. Check which axis are supported
3. Download
`https://github.com/notofonts/notofonts.github.io/archive/refs/tags/noto-monthly-release-23.8.1.tar.gz`
and look in the `fonts/NotoSans/unhinted/variable-ttf` direcotry
Actual Results:
Only the weight axis is variable in this package
Expected Results:
The weight and width axis are variable in this package
Changing the path at
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/google-noto-fonts/blob/rawhide/f/googl...
works for every variable font/script except for NotoKufiArabic, which has the
complete font files in the `variable` dir.
Before compression, this is ~16mb larger than before (total, across all
subpackages).

[Bug 1999078] New: Hinting broken for Bitstream Vera/DejaVu in

Screenshot with varying sub pixel placement
Description of problem:
After upgrading from Fedora 33 to Fedora 34, there is some extremely odd
hinting bug in Epiphany. The same glyph appears with different amount of
hinting in the same line of text, causing a very odd and blurry appearance.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
freetype-2.10.4-3.fc34.x86_64
bitstream-vera-sans-fonts-1.10-41.fc33.noarch
dejavu-sans-fonts-2.37-16.fc34.noarch
epiphany-40.3-1.fc34.x86_64
webkit2gtk3-2.32.3-1.fc34.x86_64
pango-1.48.9-2.fc34.x86_64
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure Epiphany to use Bitstream Vera or DejaVu Sans Book
2. Configure full hinting
Actual results:
Fully hinted, consistent glyphs.
Expected results:
Some glyphs are fully hinted, some look like they've been offset by a fraction
of a pixel. (See screenshot)
Additional info:
So far I'm only seeing this in Epiphany. I still filed this for freetype since
as far as I know it is freetype that does all glyph layout, hinting and
sub-pixel stuff. Feel free to move as appropriate. So it seems odd that a bug
in Epiphany can screw this up.
