            Bug ID: 139545
           Summary: Nimbus Roman No9 L Bold font (otf fomat) not displayed
                    correctly
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.5.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Description:
Extra "bolding" appears to be added to Nimbus Roman No9 L.

The appearance in LO Writer does not match either font viewer's rendering, the
preview on font websites, or Abiword's (screenshot of the latter vs LO Writer
attached)

I would be grateful if this could be fixed.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install the Nimbus Roman No9 L family from
https://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/nimbus-roman-no9-l
2. $ fc-cache -fv
3. Use LO Writer and set the font to Bold

Actual Results:
Extra bolding is applied by LO Writer - see screenshot

Expected Results:
Weight matches appearance in font viewer and Abiword


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Version: 6.1.5.2
Build ID: 1:6.1.5-3+deb10u6
CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 4.19; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; 
Locale: en-GB (en_GB.UTF-8); Calc: group threaded

Both anti-aliasing and hardware acceleration are enabled.
