Summary: Konqueror's default font is illegible. The font is
DejaVu Sans.
Product: konqueror
Version: 4.0.3
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: konq-bugs kde org
ReportedBy: ms f2s com
Version: 4.0.3 (using KDE 4.0.3)
Installed from: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
The default font used by Konqueror, DejaVu Sans, is shown incorrectly. This makes it \
illegible.
There is already a bug report, 154919, which reports that some fonts are shown \
incorrectly. The reason I am writing this in a new bug report is that Kubuntu 8.04 \
KDE4 displays this bug in a very prominent place, so I think this bug may be seen by \
many people. (If other people see what I see.) This makes a fix more urgent.
I am using the live CD, I have not installed this distro.
The Live CD for this distro has only two icons on the desktop, "Install" and "About \
Kubuntu". The "About Kubuntu" icon is a HTML file, introducing Kubuntu and KDE. \
When this file is opened by Konqueror, it displays a page of illegible text. This \
will often be the first app that people will use when trying out KDE 4, so it gives a \
bad impression.
A quick fix for this would be to simply change the default font used by Konqueror. \
The problem with displaying the font incorrectly can then be fixed later. \
