Noto Sans T Chinese font weight DemiLight and Regular is not distinguishable in fontconfig 2.11.0 #43

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install Noto Sans T Chinese fonts to ~/.fonts/
2. exec fc-list 'Noto Sans T Chinese' family style weight

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Noto Sans T Chinese DemiLight should have a different weight with Regular but

Noto Sans T Chinese,Noto Sans T Chinese Regular:style=Regular:weight=80
Noto Sans T Chinese,Noto Sans T Chinese Black:style=Black,Bold:weight=210
Noto Sans T Chinese,Noto Sans T Chinese Thin:style=Thin,Regular:weight=0
Noto Sans T Chinese,Noto Sans T Chinese 
DemiLight:style=DemiLight,Regular:weight=80
Noto Sans T Chinese,Noto Sans T Chinese Bold:style=Bold:weight=200
Noto Sans T Chinese,Noto Sans T Chinese Medium:style=Medium,Regular:weight=100
Noto Sans T Chinese,Noto Sans T Chinese Light:style=Light,Regular:weight=50

In fontconfig the font weight between Regular and Light should Book=75

Also using GtkFontChooser which uses Pango, there is no DemiLight or Book but 
two Medium.

Fontconfig fixed:

Pango needs fixing.  Tracking that one here:

It seems the newly introduced name is "Semi-Light", which is similar but not 
identical to the name "DemiLight" in the font. Is this intentional? Does it 
work correctly if I create my OpenOffice file on a Mac and later open it on 
Linux or vice versa?

The Semi-Light you see comes from Pango.  Fontconfig doesn't care.  It should 
work for all practical purposes.  I'm trying to fix the Pango display issue 
too, but that's just cosmetic.
