Rendering comparison

Description of problem:
After installing vlgothic-fonts-20090204-2.fc10.noarch, some Japanese
characters are incorrectly rendered with a different font (apparently
a Chinese one). More specifically, when an ASCII alphabetical character is
followed some Japanese characters (Japanese punctuations for example),
the followed characters are not rendered with the VLGothic font, but
with a Chinese one.

This does not happen with VLGothic-fonts-20081029-1.fc10.noarch and before.
See attached image for comparison. gedit is used for capturing.
The "monospace" font and the "sans-serif" font causes this problem.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
vlgothic-fonts-20090204-2.fc10.noarch

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Display a Japanese text with "monospace" or "sans-serif" font.
  
Actual results:
Some characters are rendered with a Chinese font.

Expected results:
Characters should be rendered with the VLGothic font.

Better reassigning to cjkunifonts.

Comment 2 Jens Petersen 2009-02-16 03:02:49 UTC
Can you post the output of:

rpm -qa \*fonts\* | sort

It would be hopeful if you can narrow down which font package is causing the problem.
It might be baekmuk-ttf for example? (see also end of bug 475743 comment 32)

Comment 4 Caius Chance 2009-02-16 15:55:53 UTC
This one might be duplicated to bug #475743.

Comment 5 Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams 2009-02-24 06:48:10 UTC
The issue is 64-ttf-arphic-uming.conf. After renaming it to 67-... various glyphs came up as gothic. This file probably needs to be split into a high-priority serif portion, and a low-priority sans portion.

Comment 6 Jens Petersen 2009-02-24 07:09:38 UTC
Perhaps you can test with the cjkuni-*fonts packages in rawhide and see if that works better for you?

They already have some fontconfig changes included.

Comment 7 Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams 2009-02-24 07:47:11 UTC
Installing the fonts from Rawhide did help.

Hi Yuta, could you kindly provide the test case you mentioned in comment #1 please? Thanks.

Test case after cjkunifonts-uming package updated

OK, here's a screenshot. It seems that everything is working flawlessly.

Just FYI, I've updated only cjkunifonts-uming package, because it's the only
package of cjkunifonts-* series installed in my box.

Comment 12 Jens Petersen 2009-03-02 01:47:45 UTC
Thanks for testing.

Comment 13 Fedora Update System 2009-03-13 18:42:10 UTC
cjkunifonts-0.2.20080216.1-11.fc10 has been pushed to the Fedora 10 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
