improving the various font bits in nautilus.Some fonts are designed for screen display only, and don't look well well when printed (metrics are incompatible when used as replacement fonts).He would like to be able to tweak that on a system-wide basis, or search for a font with similar letter forms, but less constrictive leading.ĭylan knows he can adjust leading on a paragraph or document basis in OpenOffice, but would prefer the control over font leading to work to work like a volume control panel, where different sources can be normalized to his personal display aesthetic rather than futzing with paragraph formatting on a per instance basis. There are some fonts he loves for letterform, but hates for having the interline spacing (leading) too close together or too far apart.

Dylan also understands that line length, intercharacter spacing, interword spacing, interline spacing, and letter forms all interact with how quickly meaning flies off the page into his mind when reviewing copious source materials at high speed, sometimes jumping a page at a time, sometimes attending specific words and phrases.

He understands that fonts with a large variation between short widths (i) and large widths (M or W) make it hard to accurately control the cursor when scribbling frantically with his keyboard boosted to a very high repeat rate, so he prefers to edit using fonts with more consistent character metrics, but there is no easy way to search for these.

Dylan is an expert in his subject matter, has an accelerated mind, reads voraciously, writes professionally, and blogs prolifically.

Seb knows he'll never use Arabian fonts for writing, just for viewing when visiting websites the fonts should not appear in font selection menus.

He has a dynamic set listing all fonts from a foundry whose open fonts he really likes, when this foundry releases a new fonts and he gets it from the archive, it automatically joins the set. He taggs his fonts with emblems and they automatically get grouped together. He wants to be able to visually distinguish the free/libre/open fonts he has installed from the few restricted fonts he still needs to use.

Ric would rather just run Free Software on his laptop.

He needs a nice responsive GUI to install/remove his proprietary font and configure it. He wants to drap&drop and play with cursors and menus to adjust all the font settings. He does not want to use the command line and does not care about fontconfig caches and xml configuration.

She can also quickly see the license of the font and may choose to contact the designer to extend the font for her. She can easily see the features of the font, the history of the project, what inspired the design of that particular font family, etc by simply using the context menu. She wants to know if that font has smart features for a specific writing system.

She goes into the font folder and wants to learn more about the font by looking all the font metadata in the properties tab.

UBUNUTU GNOME FONT VIEWER ARCHIVE

Jane has just installed a new font package from the archive and finds the font really beautifully designed.His font menu is too way too big and some of his apps have annoying performance problems enumerating big font lists. Jeff is a designer with a large collection of fonts and he's much rather be able to group fonts in logical sets and activate/deactivate them when needed rather than spending too much time manually uninstalling the ones he wants out of his way or which are using a script other than his own.The free desktop has made some amazing progress with system-level font support, now we just need some interface polish to expose and complements some font-related functionalities. Picking up some ideas left over from UbuntuDownUnder/BOFs/FontHandling.
