Created attachment 202805 [details]
A text using Liberation Sans

The attachment is generated by Inkscape. It has a text element using Liberation Sans font.

Importing it to Draw, and breaking the "SVG" object to allow selecting and inspecting the text object, the font of the text is shown 'Liberation Sans' (*including* the apostrophes), and is italicized in the toolbar / sidebar font controls.

Opening the SVG in a text editor, and removing apostrophes surrounding the font name, gives the correct font name when imported into Draw.
