2009-11-16 06:37:54 Mehdi Hassanpour description It seems some font packages has been removed in Karmic vs Jaunty and so Persian support in Karmic became really poor vs Jaunty. In Jaunty internet browsers like FF use Nazli az serif for persian sites (which is right facing) but in Karmic browsers use DejaVu Serif wich is really ugly and completely unreadable... I've installed "language-support-fonts-fa" meta package but nothing changed yet... Screenshot for Jaunty which looks fine: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/34758919/Screenshot-Jaunty.png Screenshot for Karmic which is unreadable: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/34759310/Screenshot-Karmic.png FreeSerif is the default Serif font in Firefox & epiphany on Karmic, this font has unreadable glyphs for Persian and maybe other nonlatin languages... Jaunty didn't have this bug. pmap grep ttf for firefox in Jaunty CD is: b2285000 316 - - - r---- DejaVuSansMono.ttf b2419000 300 - - - r---- DejaVuSerif-Bold.ttf b24be000 560 - - - r---- DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf b4051000 324 - - - r---- DejaVuSerif.ttf b48eb000 608 - - - r---- DejaVuSans.ttf and pmap grep ttf for firefox in Karmic CD is: aebc7000 1252 - - - r---- FreeSerif.ttf b5628000 300 - - - r---- DejaVuSerif-Bold.ttf b5673000 560 - - - r---- DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf b60ad000 324 - - - r---- DejaVuSerif.ttf b723a000 608 - - - r---- DejaVuSans.ttf Screenshot for Jaunty which looks fine: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/34758919/Screenshot-Jaunty.png Screenshot for Karmic which is unreadable: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/34759310/Screenshot-Karmic.png
