Description of problem: We enable artificial oblique and embolden for fonts which do not have bold and italic style fonts, but user couldn't choose those two styles when they select an individual font. How reproducible: everytime Steps to Reproduce: 1. gedit 2. Edit -> Preference 3. Fonts & Color -> Editor font 4. Choose "Baekmuk Gulim" Actual results: In Style column, it shows "Regular" only. Expected results: In Style column, it should show "Regular; Italic; and Bold"
Created attachment 137224 [details] proposed patch Behdad, I wrote a patch for Pango to enable the synthetic embolden/oblique features in fontconfig/freetype. this could be done in fontconfig though, it may be intentional why fontconfig didn't do so since it has separate flag like FC_EMBOLDEN and some applications may not wants to use it. If you think that it should be implemented in fontconfig anyway, please let me know.
reassigning to pango so far.
There's an upstream bug about this, with a patch that I committed once but had to revert: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=319808 I'll probably look into it not before next weekend during the GNOME Boston summit.
This bug in the upstream bugzilla is: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=319808 And this bug in the upstream bugzilla has already been fixed. So this bug can be closed.
