Title:
bold font rendeing in Java is broken in Cosmic with OpenJDK 11
Status in OpenJDK:
New
Status in freetype package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Since update to Cosmic, I see that bold fonts in Java have broken
rendering. See attached 400% scaled PNG for illustration. The 'r' in
bold rendering of "Hello World" shows basically a vertical line from
the end of the hook end. I am not entirely sure this is freetype issue
but some sources (https://github.com/adobe/brackets/issues/14290)
suggest there is a bug in the 2.8.1 version that Cosmic seems to
install (libfreetype6/cosmic,now 2.8.1-2ubuntu2 amd64 [installed]).
