            Bug ID: 113496
           Summary: Open source font installer bundles on download webpage
                    per locale
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.0.0.alpha1+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium

          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

As it wouldn't be practical to bundle fonts for each language within the main
installer, but it is important for LO to promote open source fonts, like it
currently does with Liberation fonts, i would like to suggest that we offer
font bundles per locale on the download webpage, along with the UI and help
installers.

These font bundles would be created once per OS and updated when needed, which
will limit the amount of work involved in maintaining this feature.

This enhancement is mainly targeted towards Windows and Mac OS, which do not
ship open source fonts.
