http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=927466 Bug ID: 927466 Summary: Tex Gyre fonts incorrectly substituted for Helvetica and Times by fontconfig Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 13.1 Version: Final Hardware: All OS: openSUSE 13.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org Assignee: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: dmitri.chubarov@gmail.com QA Contact: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:37.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/37.0 Build Identifier: Tex Gyre fonts miss common ligatures such as fl and fi. When a text containing ligatures is rendered in poppler clients using Tex Gyre fonts, whitespace is rendered instead of the ligatures: "Get fire in a flash" is rendered as "Get re in a ash". Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1-a. Use an attach pdf file "fireflash.pdf" or 1-b. Generate a new tex file fireflash.tex containing "fl" and "fi" strings using `mathptmx' or `times' packages and compile a pdf with command `pdflatex "\pdfmapfile{=pdftex_ndl14.map} \input" fireflash.tex' 2. Open fireflash.pdf in evince or ocular. Actual Results: The ligatures are not rendered. The text is rendered with Tex Gyre fonts Expected Results: The ligatures should be rendered. The text should be rendered with Nimbus Roman fonts. The problem is with the fontconfig configuration. The /etc/fonts/conf.d/30-metric-aliases.conf file should not contain instructions to replace Helvetica and Times with Tex Gyre fonts ahead of Nimbus fonts. Will attach a pdf file with ligatures and fonts not embedded for testing and a diff of the fontconfig 30-metric-aliases.conf.
