Then I suspect the fonts has embedded bitmap strikes for certain pixel sizes (many CJK fonts do) and that is what you are getting at lower sizes. Try to disabled embedded bitmaps in FontConfig and see if it makes any difference (the simplist way is to copy/link /etc/fonts/conf.avail/70-no-bitmaps.conf to /etc/fonts/conf.d/70-no-bitmaps.conf and restart LibreOffice). > > Not displaying the English name if the font do not have a localized name for > > the current locale is an independent issue and should be reported separately. > > Done. <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_UNCONFIRMED " title="UNCONFIRMED - Font name toolbar control shouldnt display non-english alternative name in english locale" href="show_bug.cgi?id=107485">Bug 107485</a>.

Since you are on Linux, that is the only platform where we try to read all localized font names and set them internally as alternate names (so that specifying the font by its localized name works), but probably this code is too naïve and things got mixed up.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
