Description Jonathan Cohen 2017-12-18 19:23:40 UTC
Description:
When I go to the preferences panel for default font (LibreOffice > Preferences > LibreOffice Writer > Basic Fonts (Western)) and change the default fonts I think there might be a bug. When I change the default font for Heading, List, Caption, or Index it persists across sessions. However, when I change the default font for "Default" it works for the current session but then resets back to Cambria for he next session. Is this a known issue? Thank you!

Steps to Reproduce:
1. LibreOffice > Preferences > LibreOffice Writer > Basic Fonts (Western)
2. Change default fonts
3. Close and open a new document. The default "Default" font should have reset while the rest of the customizations persist. 

Actual Results:  
The "Default" default font does not persist across future sessions.

Expected Results:
The "Default" default font should persist across future sessions, just like the other 4 default fonts.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

@Jonathan : The default Western fonts on my LO5444 installation are Liberation, not Cambria :

Default : Liberation Serif
Heading : Liberation Sans
List : Liberation Serif
Caption : Liberation Serif
Index : Liberation Serif

Where did you get your Cambria as default font from ? This isn't the default application wide setting.

Have you changed your default New document template ?
