--- Comment #1 from Nicolas Mailhot nicolas.mailhot@laposte.net --- LibreOffice already dropped Type 1 support for the same reasons several years ago
And it produced the same kind of user pushback.
And in the end, no one did anything, probably because our stash of OpenType vector fonts is rich enough nowadays, no one found it worth his time to rescue Type 1 fonts.
#bug 1753295 is quite different, because the user population here, is composed of people who have been resisting migration to vector fonts for at least 25 years (and, because they didn't want to use vector fonts ever at all, have been deliberately buying low resolution screens that work for bitmap fonts but not vector fonts).
