Addition of bold fonts to the pkg
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:07:14 EST
Description of problem: We have just received the bold fonts from the vendor for the lohit family. Since this is a feature add to the font pkg, I am looking for comments if that is OK. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.6 Additional info: New version of fonts available here: http://bob.brisbane.redhat.com/~jnansi/pkgs/
How are the results from QA Event on rendering and printing with both new regular and bold together?
Punjabi and hindi QA had already completed when we got the fonts. Tamil QA used these fonts. I can confirm that regular and bold together work well for display and printing (atleast for evolution).
Let me know when you got results on OOo, gedit etc as well for one set of language first. However we need to redo the languages which haven't do later.
I have spent some time to test in Tamil tonight (same goes with Hindi). It's different with my results. For printing, look like evolution is using bold style instead of regular style even if i haven't select bold. If I am in HTML mode and select some regular and bold, and it will still shows all as bold. OOo is even worse, if bold is used in the document, the printout will have sqaures on indic characters. Rendering on screen with bold and regular looks okay.
Mark this to depend on the OOo and evolution bold font bugs.
It is still dep on openoffice and evolution problem.
