Title:
  ttf-nanum-coding's properties said its proportion is monospace

Status in “ttf-nanum-coding” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  ttf-nanum-coding is member of ttf-nanum font family and it provide Korean monospace fonts.
  However, Korean letters are 2 times bigger than English letters, so actually it's proportion is even-width.
  But, some programs(ex: emacs) can't distinguish even-width and monospace.
  As a result, these programs show English letters with lots of space.
  Using special fontconfig file which turn off globaladvance at ttf-nanum-coding can solve this problem.

  More information can be found at

  link but include screenshot and solution code).
