It's well known that the current font selectors are not good enough. They were designed for a dozen unchanging fonts with four faces at most, and the font state has grown a lot more complex since (unicode, smart font features, fonts with lots of faces, etc). Nowadays a normal desktop system can have a font library as complex as specialized design stations had a decade ago, but the standard selectors have not been raised to the level of dtp font selectors of last decade. http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=79878 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=597751 (you can probably find others on http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Known_fonts_and_text_bugs) There are many designs for better selectors floating around (some of them years old). I'm pretty use that as soon as GNOME, KDE or OO.o fixes its implementation, the others will suddenly find the time to fix theirs. Right now they seem to consider it's ok to suck as long as the others suck equally. I'd love to see progress there too, but it is a different problem than the "font store" one. -- Nicolas Mailhot _______________________________________________ fonts mailing list fonts@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/fonts http://fonts.fedoraproject.org/
