rfca9d68e r26a618b 424 424 425 425 <para> 426 Those three fonts are the first-choice preferences of fontconfig for text 427 in those three alphabets, and they are updated frequently to cover recent 428 Unicode additions such as the extensions for phonetic transcription in 429 Latin and Cyrillic alphabets. 430 </para> 431 432 <para> 426 433 It may be easier to download a specific Noto font by going to <ulink 427 434 url="https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Noto+Sans">Noto Sans</ulink> … … 438 445 439 446 <para> 440 However, you should be aware that <application>fontconfig</application> 441 knows nothing about Noto fonts. The 'Noto Sans Something' fonts are each 442 treated as separate fonts (and for Arabic there is not a specific Sans 443 name), so if you have other fonts installed then the choice of which font 444 to use for missing glyphs where 'Noto Sans' is specified will be random, 445 except that Sans fonts will be preferred over <emphasis>known</emphasis> 446 Serif and Monospace fonts because Sans is the fallback for unknown fonts. 447 For writing systems not using the Latin, Greek or Cyrillic alphabets the 448 Noto fonts are not preferred by fontconfig. If you use a Noto font for 449 a modern language where another installed font also covers it (e.g. the 450 DejaVu conts cover several Right-to-Left alphabets), you might need to 451 set a preference for fontconfig - see the previous page. 447 452 </para> 448 453
