Bug ID: 364489
Summary: Partially bad font rendering of DejaVu Sans/Bitsream
Vera Sans fonts
Product: frameworks-plasma
Version: 5.5.0
Platform: Kubuntu Packages
URL: http://abload.de/img/screenshot_20160612_01wxng.png
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: libplasma
Assignee: notm...@gmail.com
Reporter: knoe...@eml.cc
Some headlines in Plasma widgets and normal KDE windows/dialogues are rendered
badly (bad antialiasing, wrong size, too condensed) when DejaVu Sans is used as
the main font.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Choose DejaVu Sans as font in the system settings
2. (additionally) antialiasing, hinting: complete
Actual Results:
Most of the text is rendered correctly (sharp, correct size) but some headlines
(username in KMenu or month in the date/calendar widged or see
"Allgemein"/"Kategorien"/"Zusätzliche Einträge" linked image) are rendered in a
condensed/slim way with bad antialiasing and are too big.
Expected Results:
A consistent face type with clear font rendering for both normal text (this is
already achieved) and headlines when using DejaVu Sans/Bitsream Vera Sans or
any other font family. The same results as for the Noto Sans font is expected.
This bug does not occur with other fonts like Noto Sans or Arial (I have not
tested all fonts).
It has been reproduced with Kubuntu 16.06 LTS (both Plasma 5.5 and 5.6,
backports packages) and Manjaro 16.06.1.
