Description Elliott Sales de Andrade 2013-03-07 09:25:40 UTC
Description of problem:
From the Google Web Fonts page, http://www.google.com/webfonts/specimen/Josefin+Sans , there are 10 styles of Josefin Sans. The Fedora package only seems to contain the Light style.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
typemade-josefinsansstd-light-fonts-1.000-6.fc18

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Look for Josefin in Scribus or gnome-font-viewer or `fc-list|grep Josefin`.
  
Actual results:
Only Light style available.

Expected results:
All 10 styles available.

PS, there is also a (serif) Josefin Slab font in case anyone is interested.

Comment 3 Parag Nemade 2014-09-26 06:13:14 UTC
I had a look into googlefontdirectory and found what you are requesting is completely a new font package in fedora. There are 2 such fonts in googlefontdirectory. You are asking for
https://googlefontdirectory.googlecode.com/hg/ofl/josefinsans/METADATA.json
whereas we have
https://googlefontdirectory.googlecode.com/hg/ofl/josefinsansstdlight/METADATA.json

This is not a bug and someone may need to add that new font in Fedora.
