I do not consider this bug as a duplicated of bug 82163, the older bug was present in earlier versions of LibreOffice and was previously fixed as you can see in my LO 7.1 screenshot attachment, so my bug seems as a regresion
Comment 7 Timur 2021-08-20 14:45:13 UTC
"TimesNewRoman" italic is also not a good font. 

But let's go for a change in 7.2:

sdext.pdfimport: Restore to read font file for the determination...

of font attributes, as suggested by Mike Kaganski in
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/118977

This partially reverts da59686672fd2bc98f8cb28d5f04dc978b50ac13
but did some modification of the previous code with some
explanationary comments.

HI Kevin, please see this.

Timur and Gabriel Dorante, if I am understanding correct, this now works correct on master builds (i.e., fonts are shown as "TimesNewRoman" and thus is correctly applied as Times New Roman font by the system), but is broken in 7.2 build (i.e., fonts are shown as "AAAAAA+TimesNewRoman")?
Comment 9 Timur 2021-08-21 07:04:43 UTC
I'm not by computer, but I think not correct in 7.3, fonts shown as  as "AAAAAA+TimesNewRoman". 
This was never Ok, even when fonts were previously shown as  as "TimesNewRoman" they were italic, indicating that font was missing and replaced.
Comment 10 Kevin Suo 2021-08-21 10:19:44 UTC
I've submitted a patch in
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/120815

Please build and review if it works ok with this patch.

The font name showning as "TimesNewRoman" rather than "Times New Roman" is a separate issue as explained in bug 143095. However, currently if the font is "TimesNewRoman" in most systems it can be correctly rendered (i.e., substituted) as "Times New Roman", thus this is not a big deal.

No, It works correct in 7.1.x builds but is broken in 7.2.x and 7.3.x bulds
Comment 15 Timur 2021-08-24 06:53:37 UTC
Gabriel, it's already fixed, the font name showing as "TimesNewRoman" . It's still italic, meaning replaced, which is another issue.
You may test with master from https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/current.html. It installs in addition to your working LO.
