It's supposed to be fixed, but I still suffer this bug on fontconfig 2.11.0 (debian packaged): https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27765 fc-match simply report the first style that it found in the 'style' field, regardless of the language. For example, Helvetica.ttf has: style: "標準體"(s) "Ordinær"(s) "Normal"(s) "Regular"(s) "Normaali"(s) "Regolare"(s) "レギュラー"(s) "일반체"(s) "Regulier"(s) "Обычный"(s) "常规体"(s) "عادي"(s) stylelang: "zh-tw"(s) "da"(s) "de"(s) "en"(s) "fi"(s) "it"(s) "ja"(s) "ko"(s) "nl"(s) "ru"(s) "zh-cn"(s) "ar"(s) My system use "it" as default locale, but "fc-match Helvetica" report: Helvetica.ttf: "Helvetica" "標準體" that is the first style in the list (i.e. zh-tw). This behavior can be replicated with each font, like FreeMono in the debian bug report: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=662931 _______________________________________________ Fontconfig mailing list Fontconfig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/fontconfig
