Bug ID: 956453 Summary: Incorrect font aliases for TimesNewRomanPS and TimesNRMT Product: Fedora Version: 18 Component: fontconfig Severity: unspecified Priority: unspecified Assignee: tagoh@redhat.com Reporter: quantum.analyst@gmail.com QA Contact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: fonts-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org, i18n-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org, pnemade@redhat.com, tagoh@redhat.com Category: ---
Description of problem: As an example, please see this PDF: http://www.ualberta.ca/~ygu/publications/christian_gji.pdf
It uses several serif fonts that are not embedded: TimesNewRomanPS TimesNewRomanPS-Italic TimesNewRomanPS-Bold TimesNewRomanPS-BoldItalic TimesNRMT-SemiBold
When I view it in Firefox's pdf.js, the title and headings are serif, but when I view it in evince, the title and headings are sans-serif. I know pdf.js is not a perfect renderer, but at least it picks the right font.
I filed this report under fontconfig because it is returning the wrong font:
$ fc-match TimesNewRomanPS DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
$ fc-match TimesNewRomanPS-Italic DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
$ fc-match TimesNewRomanPS-Bold DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
$ fc-match TimesNewRomanPS-BoldItalic DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
$ fc-match TimesNRMT-SemiBold DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
Using similar fonts nets the correct result:
$ fc-match TimesNewRoman LiberationSerif-Regular.ttf: "Liberation Serif" "Regular"
$ fc-match Times n021003l.pfb: "Nimbus Roman No9 L" "Regular"
I am not sure of the difference here, but at least the results are serif.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): fontconfig-2.10.2-2.fc18.x86_64
Steps to Reproduce: 1. Download above PDF. 2. Open in Firefox's pdf.js 3. Open in evince
Actual results: Differing fonts for title and headings.
Expected results: Same fonts for title and headings.
