--- Comment #2 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
I verify the missing code page details, opening the v2.000.GOOG build Noto
fonts with FontCreator, but can not confirm the impact of the missing Code Page
Character Ranges--at least in an en-US locale.

On a system with the Noto v2.00 build fonts installed with LibreOffice 6.2, LO
generated ODF, OOXML and at least DOCX are rendered in MS Word 2016 with no
loss of font fidelity. The Noto Sans and Noto Serif Regular fonts are parsed
and read by MS Word.

On same system with an ODF exported to PDF (font subset) the PDF renders using
the Noto fonts as composed.

So on the originating system this appears pretty benign. Of course it could be
more severe reopening on a different system, or for locale using other scripts.

But, probably best to move to more current Noto sources that have been patched
when available as this seems legitimate for some locales.

@Khaled?
