Created attachment 1997694 [details] Comparison of Fedora's and Google's Comfortaa Font Description of problem: The font "Comfortaa" does not display the number 8 correctly, Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): idk How reproducible: Always (for me atleast) Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open any application or document using the "Comfortaa" font. 2. Observe the appearance of the number 8 in the text. Actual results: The number "8" in the Comfortaa font does not render correctly, as seen in the attached picture. Expected results: The font should render all characters, including the number "8," correctly. Additional info: This issue can be resolved by removing the existing Comfortaa font and replacing it with a version downloaded directly from Google Fonts (https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Comfortaa) I'm using Fedora 39 (KDE Spin).
Hello honkhonkhonk, We were able to reprodue that issue. The packaged Comfortaa is identical to Google Fonts version, only difference is possible an parsing error in the packaged version. We will take a look at the root cause.
I have observed that the font rendering issue can be reproduced when creating a virtual machine using the Fedora KDE ISO.
This is because a font at Google Fonts is newer than the font we shipped. $ otfinfo -v /usr/share/fonts/aajohan-comfortaa-fonts/Comfortaa-Regular.otf Version 3.101;PS 003.101;hotconv 1.0.88;makeotf.lib2.5.64775 $ otfinfo -v ~/Downloads/Comfortaa/static/Comfortaa-Regular.ttf Version 3.105 That may contains unreleased changes since 2017: https://github.com/googlefonts/comfortaa/compare/3.101...main
Can you test https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/@designsuite/fonts/fedora-39-x86_64/06695457-aajohan-comfortaa-fonts/ please to see if the issue get resolved? If so, we will make it available on the main repository.
That looks good to me. $ rpm -q aajohan-comfortaa-fonts aajohan-comfortaa-fonts-3.105-1.20210729git2a87ac6.fc39.noarch $ hb-view --font-file /usr/share/fonts/aajohan-comfortaa-fonts/Comfortaa-Regular.otf --text 8 ▂▄▆▇▇▇▆▄▂ ▟ ▁▄▆▆▆▄▁ ▙ ▌ ▉ ▏ ▌ ▍ ▊ ▎ ▋ ▙▖ ▙▂ ▂▟ ▗ ▖ ▇ ▊ ▃▇ ▂▄▅▆▅▄▂ ▇▃ ▌ ▟ ▙ ▌ ▏ ▌ ▍ ▉ ▏ ▋ ▍ ▉ ▙ ▄ ▄ ▟ ▙▂ ▇▅▄▄▄▅ ▂▟ ▇▅▄▃▃▃▄▅▇
