            Bug ID: 133597
           Summary: Feature Request: Typeface/Font Selection for
                    Math/Formula or correction of few characters
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Formula Editor
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: georg.mueller at private.m2tech.de

Description:
The Formula Editor LibreOffice Math provides an option to edit the default
typefaces of variables, functions, numbers and text. Unfortunately operators
are not affected by any of those categories. Few operators are not locking that
pretty, especially +, -> (rightarrow), <- (leftarrow), => (drarrow), <=
(dlarrow).

It would be awesome, if this could be fixed, either by changing the typeface of
those particular characters or even better by an 5th option to chose the
typeface for operators. That + doesn't fit to the rest of the operators becomes
obvious by comparing + and – (minus). The lines of the plus are much heavier
than the line of minus.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open LibreOffice Math
2. Type "a+b-c -> d <- e" and compare +, – (minus), -> (rightarrow) and ->
(leftarrow)

Actual Results:
Lineweight of plus operator and arrows is much heavier than expected

Expected Results:
plus and minus have same line weight/fontface. Could be fixed easy by
modification of typeface (+) or character (->, <-).


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
I wanted to replace the typeface with CMU serif (Computer Modern by D. E.
Knuth) (https://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/computer-modern). I guess all
operators are predefined and can not be changed. Would be nice to correct the
misfitting characters or even better to have an option to choose a typeface.
