Source Sans Pro TTF files do not include Smallcaps #17

Closed psykon closed 4 months ago

psykon commented 4 months ago

Describe the bug When rendering the project with the included fonts at src/fonts, the output does not show the smallcaps as it is the case in the screenshots.

To Reproduce

  1. Clone Repository
  2. build with just compile-cv
  3. Inspect PDF

Expected behavior Societies and Footer to be rendered in SmallCaps

Possible Fix It seems that Adobe included SmallCaps only in the OpenType version of the Fonts, not the TrueType versions. Adding the OTF files from https://github.com/adobe-fonts/source-sans to the src/fonts directory and changing the font in template.typ to "Source Sans 3" leads to an output with correctly rendered SmallCaps - while everything else looks the same (at least on my machine)

Hi @psykon excuses for the long-due follow-up, just checked and indeed this is not an expected behaviour (I didn't even realize the question of small-caps).

I see two solutions:

  1. Replace the ttf files with the ones including Smallcaps
  2. De-style all the smallcaps and replace them by normal fontstyle

Which one in your opinion can be more desirable?

psykon commented 4 months ago

Personally, I really like the look of SmallCaps in the template, so I would prefer to keep the style and go with option 1.

New font files updated! Closing this issue and pls check if it works well on your side!
