Noto Sans Regular shows as Thin Condensed upon installation #429
Comments
This is really interesting; it's probably related to #227. I'm really struggling to understand both these issues - we build this font with the same tools as all our others, and it conforms to the QA standards in the Google Fonts Guide, so if there is a problem with how Windows handles this kind of font then we're currently not catching it with our QA tools - and I don't have Windows to debug it. But it's useful to see that it's happening in a static font, because the only place that "Thin Condensed" is mentioned is in the STAT table. And "Thin"/"Condensed" are the first values for each axis in that STAT table.
