Bug#742767: fonts-texgyre: Termes font in does not render ligatures in evince
Package: fonts-texgyre
Version: 2.004.2-4
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
Updating the system so that fonts-gyrex is used as a replacement for Times.
Possibly due to changes in fontconfig priorities.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Opening a pdf file containing fi or fl ligatures.
* What was the outcome of this action?
fi and fl ligatures do not render correctly, they show up as whitespace but can
be copied and pasted fine.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
fi and fl should show up.
This is the same bug (I think) as reported on freedesktop's bug tracking
system:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73291
where also a link to a sample pdf file is provided.
