Description: Under Ubuntu, all fonts installed on the system are displayed in the font dropdown. This is highly unfortunate, because Ubuntu by default installs international fonts automatically with some common packages. If the Noto font set is install, you literally have over 200 fonts added to your list. Fonts that you will never, ever use, but you have to scroll past anyway. This is an immense anti-feature and a waste of time. My proposal is to have a dialog that opens in Options with a checkbox by each font so the end-user can decide if they want the font displayed in the dropdown list or not. Alternatively, let's all lobby Ubuntu to stop installing fonts that are different from the fonts required by the L18N specified by the user when they install the OS. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Ubuntu and LO. 2. Optionally, try to install a package such as Java or Fontforge that has font dependencies. This step is not required since an initial install also has font dependencies. 3. Try to change your font. Actual Results: The problem is that LO has no mechanism to filter the font options displayed. Expected Results: n/a Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: n/a

Thanks for filing. Has been a task for some time. @Timur, actually more a dupe of bug 91130 than of bug 95207 ;-) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 91130 ***
