Subject: Large family confuses fontconfig Package: fontconfig Version: 2.2.3-4 Severity: normal *** Please type your report below this line *** I' ve just bought some nice Adobe fonts with small caps and oldstyle figures. I tried to install them by putting them into .fonts in my home directory. The following files were copied there, all directly from the CD, no conversion or similar: AGaramond-Italic.afm AGaramond-Italic.pfa AGaramond-ItalicOsF.afm AGaramond-ItalicOsF.pfa AGaramond-Regular.afm AGaramond-Regular.pfa AGaramond-RegularSC.afm AGaramond-RegularSC.pfa AGaramond-Semibold.afm AGaramond-Semibold.pfa AGaramond-SemiboldItalic.afm AGaramond-SemiboldItalic.pfa AGaramond-SemiboldItalicOsF.afm AGaramond-SemiboldItalicOsF.pfa AGaramond-SemiboldSC.afm AGaramond-SemiboldSC.pfa AGaramond-Titling.afm AGaramond-Titling.pfa fc-list gives me the following: client21% fc-list | grep Garam | sort Adobe Garamond:style=Italic Adobe Garamond:style=Italic Oldstyle Figures Adobe Garamond:style=Regular Adobe Garamond:style=Semibold Adobe Garamond:style=Semibold Italic Adobe Garamond:style=Semibold Italic Oldstyle Figures Adobe Garamond:style=Semibold Small Caps & Oldstyle Figures Adobe Garamond:style=Small Caps & Oldstyle Figures Adobe Garamond:style=Titling Capitals but that does not really help me in practice because I cannot use these fonts. In the font menu of e.g. AbiWord I get "Adobe Garamond". If I select the regular style (no Bold, no Italic) I get "Adobe Garamond:style=Semibold". If I select italic, I get "Adobe Garamond:style=Semibold Italic Oldstyle Figures". I cannot select any other styles in this family. I am not even sure this is a bug, or a bug in fontconfig, but if it is not a bug, IMHO the documentation could be improved. If it is a bug somewhere else, please do tell me!
