Above is a string that can be typed in the console to get the version number of a font.. nobody is going to be able to have this memorized.

Created attachment 159353 [details] From Windows, displays the version number. SUMMARY kfontview does not display the version number of the font file nor does right-clicking on the file and selecting properties, then details. This is an issue because sometimes newer or older font versions are broken and it's necessary to know which is which. There is a command line workaround, but it's onerous because it's not a string that can be remembered (see additional info). STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Double-click on a font file or right-click in a file manager, select properties and look at details. OBSERVED RESULT The version number of the font is not present. EXPECTED RESULT Version number to be displayed. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: 5.26.1 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
