These fonts are good quality ones: they provide multiple weight variants which give a better result than software changes (change font instead of selecting the software rendered bold, for instance). Granted, they lack the italics rendering. What the LibreOffice project should provide is a set of such high quality fonts: a set of fonts with separate weighted fonts (multiple levels) and italic fonts. Thus, for the time being, please keep the Source* fonts in LibreOffice, until such a free high quality one can be found. Note: the Liberation* fonts are nice to have as MS fonts equivalents but very simple (just like their MS counterparts). The Linux Biolinum G and Linux Libertine G (that is, the Graphite versions) are *very* nice and support many typographic possibilities but still lack the variants I'm asking for above. TDF sponsoring that project could be a way of resolving my need :-)</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
