Description John Arthur Smith 2007-06-10 06:29:30 UTC

I run MS Office 2003 and OpenOffice.org under Windows XP Home SP2 with all updates. In MS Word 2003 the following anomalies occur with DejaVu fonts. The DejaVu Sans Regular and Oblique (Italic) font styles appear on screen as bold, and print as bold. (DejaVu Sans Bold, and Bold Italic font appear as they should.) In OpenOffice.org Writer the DejaVu Sans Regular font appears on screen as Oblique (Italic) (not bolded) and prints as Oblique (not bolded). (The Condensed form of DejaVu Sans renders properly in all styles.)

This must be one of the easiest bugs ever apparently, as it fixes itself :-)

Could you add a little description of what you did to get it working, in case it happens to someone in the future again?
