I could be wrong, but it seems to me that bug 1317599 was originally filed about a document that is typeset predominately in Times/Times- Roman. After that bug was fixed by modifying fontconfig, this bug remained for documents typeset in Helvetica. See also comment #3 in this bug. The poppler patch described in comment's #5 and #6 of this bug will fix both issues.
As a result of a fixed version of poppler being available, there are comments in an upstream bug report to revert the changes in fontconfig to avoid side-effects in LaTex and other programs using the TeX Gyre fonts. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1379375 Title: evince does not display ligatures To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fontconfig/+bug/1379375/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
