Hi Zhe Su, I moved this issue to its own bug report. Can you explain in more detail what it does? Do you have such a font available for testing? If yes, can you please make it available for me? Sorry, I have no such font. This issue was reported and tested by others. I have the Dynafonts for testing now. Created attachment 18595 [details]
DFHSMincho-W3-20-without-patch.png
One of the dynafonts displayed with "xfd -fa" without the
patch to fontconfig applied.

DFHSMincho-W3-20-with-patch.png
Same font from the Dynafont series displayed with "xfd -fa" with
the patch to fontconfig applied.

Luxi-Sans.png
screen shot of 'xfd -fa "Luxi Sans"' for comparison.
In the screen shot in comment #5, the characters in the lower half of the picture are all wrong. They don't belong at these code positions. In the screen shot in comment #6 (i.e. with the patch applied) only characters at the correct code positions are displayed. Compare with "Luxi Sans" in the screen shot in comment #7 to verify this. * This comment was added by mail. Patched fontconfig packages for testing are here: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mfabian/9.1/i586/fontconfig-2.2.92.20040221-28.7.i586.rpm ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mfabian/9.1/i586/fontconfig-devel-2.2.92.20040221-28.7.i586.rpm ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mfabian/9.1/src/fontconfig-2.2.92.20040221-28.7.src.rpm ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mfabian/9.1/x86_64/fontconfig-2.2.92.20040221-28.7.x86_64.rpm ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mfabian/9.1/x86_64/fontconfig-devel-2.2.92.20040221-28.7.x86_64.rpm Submitted for inclusion in SLES9: ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Apr 23 17:20:41 CEST 2004 - mfabian@suse.de - Bugzilla #38243: fix the characters set handling for the Japanese Dynafonts. ------------------------------------------------------------------- I found the following strange effect, which is probably a remaining
problem which may need to be solved:
When clicking in 'xfd -fa "DFHSMincho\-W3:style=Regular:size=20"'
on the code positions where the wrong glyphs are shown before
applying the patch, e.g. U+00A0, the message:
character 0x0000a0
is shown at the top of "xfd". At the positions where no characters
were shown before applying the patch, the message
no such character 0x0000a4
is shown.
It looks like the wrong characters became invisible by applying the patch,
but fontconfig still seems to think that there are characters at these
code positions.
Any Progress? I cannot reproduce the problem I described in comment #11 anymore. Everything seems OK now. I'm not quite sure why. Anyway, closing as FIXED. Move bug from SuSE Linux 9.1 to openSUSE 11.2 to make it publicly visible. The problem is unchanged on openSUSE 11.1, if I remove the patch, the wrong glyphs shown in the attachment of comment#5 appear again. |
