the "text is outside the rectangle area" issue is fixed, the "use
shorter translations" is not an unity issue but a translation team
thing, not sure if the font item get done ... I was about to close the

Title:
  Translated category names too wide for dash

Status in Ayatana Design:
  Fix Committed
Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Triaged
Status in Unity:
  Triaged
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Some of the category names are to wide to be shown properly in the
  dash. Not only are they truncated (which is fine) but the first letter
  is rendered outside the box for that category, see the screenshot
  attached.

  Desired solution:

  - For languages that have on average longer words than English (e.g. German) The 'Ubuntu Condensed' font should be used in place of the regular font.
  - Adapt copywriting to user shorter words and abbreviations where possible.   Also in some cases international words can be used, e.g. "Rock" or "Punk"
