[Bug 1459525] Re: Amount of fonts distributed are too many - brings down loading time for applications
What ever the technical solution is, as to how, when and where the user
activates the fonts, i believe in classifying them. Having the "poster"
fonts separated from the "traditional" ones would be great, for example.
Assuming the licensing is addressed and clear, I know what i personally
answer when someone asks me: "would you like to inztall very many of
cool freedom fontz on youz computerz?". :)
While i agree that it is limition to force the user to engage a second
time to access an extra-set of fonts, i think a graphic user should
learn how to manage fonts. Since we are using font-manager, why not
configure it to our needs? Then again, i ask this question without
knowing if it is even possible and by reaching the conclusion that i
should create more documentation :)

Amount of fonts distributed are too many - brings down loading time
for applications

New
Bug description:
A user reported this issue the Ubuntu Studio contact mail, and I found it was a fair point.
We should minimize the fonts we distribute to an amount which is reasonable.
