A PDF where text in Cantarell text has disapeared

If you use the "Cantarell" font (default for Gnome), when you export the document to a PDF or go to print the document, all of the text will be turned white/be invisible.

The text is still there and you can copy and paste it into a new text file.

This issue happens 100% of the time.

If I use another font (such as "DejaVu Sans") the text will remain visible when I convert the document to a PDF. 

If part of a word is in "Cantarell" and the other half is in "DejaVu Sans" then the half that is is "Cantarell" will be turned white/disapear and the half written in "DejaVu Sans" will be visible.

This happens for text of all styles (Title, Heading 1, Image Caption, etc.).

To get this bug:

    1. Open a document (it doesn't have to be a new one)
    2. Write some text in the "Cantarell" font
    3. Write some text in another font such as "DejaVu Sans"
    4. Export the document to a PDF
    5. Open the PDF

This is a duplicate of bug #130149. The export of the variable fonts in PDF is not yet supported in LibreOffice.

lack of support for OpenType variable fonts, moving dupe to the enhancement
