    • Bug
    • Resolution: Unresolved

    Description

      https://github.com/qt/qtbase/blob/v6.8.1/src/gui/text/qtextodfwriter.cpp#L674 is:

      writer.writeAttribute(foNS, QString::fromLatin1("font-family"), QString::fromLatin1("Sans")); // Qt default

       

      If this line is triggered on macOS, then we could see a debug log like this:

      qt.qpa.fonts: Populating font family aliases took 159 ms. Replace uses of missing font family "Sans" with one that exists to avoid this cost.

       

      Suggestion
      Follow QTBUG-123416 and replace "Sans" with "Arial", or use a default font option from the platform theme plugin.
