995056 - update common font fallback lists for OSX and Windows

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Graphics: Text, defect)

Description

[John Daggett (:jtd)]

Need to update the lists of commonly used fonts to include new fonts that shipped with OSX 10.8/10.9 and Windows 8.

Steps for data collection:

1. Run Firefox and enable the pref below:

  gfx.font_rendering.fallback.always_use_cmaps ==> true

2. Restart Firefox with the following log settings enabled:

  export NSPR_LOG_MODULES=textrun:5
  export NSPR_LOG_FILE=fallback.out

3. Open the following URL:

  http://people.mozilla.org/~jdaggett/tests/fallback-allcodepoints.html

4. After the page completes, quit

Result: all fallback fonts are dumped to the log.
