Interesting. Where does that idea with changing the translation for
"font" came from? Care to explain?

Cheers,

Usually, "font" was translated to Catalan as "tipus de lletra". But some time ago (1-2 years ago?), Catalan normative dictionary (https://dlc.iec.cat/) added a new entry for "font" with the meaning of a file describing a set of letters and symbols with some styles (normal, bold, cursive, ...) and sizes. At the same time, terminology Catalan entity (https://www.termcat.cat/en) stated that "font" in the sense of "letters and symbols" that are shown in programs or apps must be translated as "lletra".
Until Plasma 5 "font" was translated to Catalan as "tipus de lletra". For Plasma 6, this is an important change because we need to identify how we translate English "font" to Catalan between two options:
- "font" in the sense of file describing a set of letters or
- "lletra" (or "lletres" in plural) when the font is shown/printed in a program or app
Besides this, "tipus de lletra" is a masculine noun and invariable in number, but "font" (also masculine noun) it can be singular or plural, and "lletra" is a feminine noun and it can be singular or plural. So, we must change some determinants and adjectives to match these noun changes. So, when a program enters in Plasma 6, we review it (also their documentation) and can make the appropriate changes.

I'm sorry for this long mail.
