Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 107803
Not all styles of the Pigiarniq are available
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:33:30 UTC
I loaded a TTF (Pigiarniq available at: http://www.fontsquirrel.com) font on my system that has 5 faces: Normal, Heavy, Bold, Italic, Bold Italic. My OS shows that I have successfully loaded all faces of the font (KDE 4.3.2 on Ubuntu 9.04 fully updated). The same TTF file when loaded on my Windows XP works fine. OOo displays all faces of the font. On my Linux install, on the other hand, the "Normal" face is not available. Also none of the OTF fonts loaded are available in OOo on my linux.
Please read the guide lines (http://qa.openoffice.org/issue_handling/pre_submission.html): This is surely not a P1 issue! @ sba: Please have a look.
Confirming on OOo32rc1. Haven't looked too deeply into the problem, but I noticed that three of the five Pigiarniq styles have their SubFamily name in the NAME-3.1-subtable as "Regular", whereas their counterparts in the NAME-1.0-subtable and in their PreferedSubfamily name are correct: "Regular", "Light" and "Heavy". I guess these families were copied and modified and some style bits were left unmodified too. This can result in them being considered to be duplicate font faces... so it looks like the problem may lie in the fonts themselves. On the other hand OOo should try to behave the same on all platforms. The OTF-thing is a duplicate to issue 43029 which has been implemented for OOo32.
Now on version 3.2 on Windows 7 I have exported a file in OO to PDF and find that my Pigiarniq font has been substituted in the exported PDF to another font entirely (and not Times New Roman).
Once again in Linux(x64) with OO3.2.0 I find that the Pigiarniq font does not display correctly, but does on Win7 (same OO)
