Description Josh Kelley 2016-09-06 21:39:11 UTC
The SourceCodePro_Bold.ttf and SourceCodePro_Regular.ttf fonts bundled with LibreOffice 5.2.0.4 for Windows are out of date and are unconditionally installed, so when I install or upgrade LibreOffice, ampersand displays as corrupted (see https://github.com/adobe-fonts/source-code-pro/issues/118) until I re-download and reinstall the latest fonts from https://github.com/adobe-fonts/source-code-pro/releases.

confirmed.
bundled Source Code Pro Regular and Bold are version 1.009. ampersand was fixed in version 1.010. latest version is 2.030 with lost of new variances: ExtraLight, Light, Medium, SemiBold, Black, plus Italics for each one.

Source Sans Pro are version 2.010 (latest 2.030) and have ampersand fix.
