* fix(fonts): restore legacy local font names via metric-compatible aliases
Closes#2989.
In v5.0.x the Puppeteer renderer resolved fonts like 'Times New Roman'
or 'Arial' through the browser's font stack. The v5.1 migration to
@react-pdf/renderer requires every font to be Font.register()-ed; the
legacy local-font names were not carried over, so resumes upgraded
from v5.0.x had their typography silently replaced with IBM Plex Serif,
changing line breaks, page counts and overall layout.
This adds a render-time alias layer mapping the old names to
metric-compatible web fonts already shipped in the webfont list:
Times New Roman → Tinos
Cambria → Tinos
Arial → Arimo
Garamond → EB Garamond
Calibri → Source Sans 3
- packages/fonts:
- new `legacyFontAliases` map and `resolveLegacyFontAlias` helper.
- `getFont` falls back to the alias map when the direct lookup misses,
so any caller that asked 'is this a known family?' now answers
truthfully for the legacy names.
- `getFontDisplayName` is intentionally unchanged: the typography
sidebar keeps showing the user's original choice ('Times New Roman'),
while the renderer transparently swaps in the alias target.
- packages/pdf/use-register-fonts:
- `resolvePdfFontFamily` returns the alias target when one applies,
so `Font.register` runs against the right web font and templates
receive a family name they can actually render.
Backwards compatible: families that were never aliased (Roboto, IBM
Plex Serif, the standard PDF fonts, ...) take exactly the same code
path as before. The CJK glyph fallback added in #2986 / PR #3013
continues to apply on top of the resolved primary family.
* fix(fonts): use Carlito (not Source Sans 3) as Calibri alias
Per maintainer review feedback: Carlito is metric-compatible with
Calibri, while Source Sans 3 only matches visually. Switching gives
upgraded resumes the same line widths, line breaks and page counts
they had under v5.0.x.
- packages/fonts/webfontlist.json: add Carlito (Google Fonts, weights
400/700 + italics) so it's a registerable target.
- packages/scripts/fonts/generate.ts: add a getMetricCompatibleFonts
helper and merge it into the output, mirroring how Computer Modern
fonts are appended. This way regenerating the list (`pnpm generate`)
re-emits Carlito automatically and dedupes if it ever enters the
Google Fonts popularity slice.
- packages/fonts/src/index.ts: alias `Calibri → Carlito`.
- packages/fonts/src/index.test.ts: update alias test cases.
