The broken text in 1.1.1 :-(
Ulf could you have a look. This looks like a regression to OOo1.1.1 which has to be fixed in OOo1.1.2. thx us@kefah: think I got the point. To be sure pls. attach a bugdoc (*.sxw) that demonstrates the error. Thx. . Created attachment 14256 [details]
Different fonts and sizes. Red is bad, green is ok.
I use Fedora Core 1 Created attachment 14257 [details]
The problems also changes per page-size-view. This one is at 100%
Created attachment 14258 [details]
This is how it looks just by chaning the view size to page width
The problem also manfestes when chainging the view zoom size. at 100% it would fix some and break others, at page width it would break the first, keep some as it, and keep others as is. see the related attachements for screen shots. US->HDU: broken glyphfallback for arabic (best reproduction on Linux) and hebrew (best reproduction on Win2k). Pls. contact me for details and bugdocs. I use Debian, and the OpenOffice Debian Packages. I am currently using the openoffice-1.1.1-1 packages from Debain sid (unstable) repositories. when I tried to Open the sxw file attached with this bug it opened fine, without any problem. I suppose that the Debian Patched with a fix to this issue. Or it could be non-related to OpenOffice it self, and caused by some libs that Fedora have, and OpenOffice use. Attached is a snapshot of how it looks in my OO 1.1.1 Created attachment 14421 [details]
OO 1.1.1 in Debian not having this issue
See also issue 25565. Are these the same issue? See also issue 25565. Are these the same issue? it turned out to be a bug in the freetype package that comes with Fedora. Once freetype was build with certain patches, the problem disapeared. The OpenOffice direct calls to FreeType, and not using XFT system, made issue hard to trace. Luckily it is not an OO issue. Very interesting. Do you know which version of freetype showed the problem and which patches were applied to make it work? Was this discussed in another (Fedora?) mailing list? Anyway, since it is not an OOo problem I changing the status to INVALID. HDU->bayazidi: do you know more details of the Fedora/Freetype problem or do you have a link for these problems? reopening for statsus change Now understood that this is a duplicate to issue 28567. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 28567 *** The Issue you raised has been marked as 'Resolved' and not updated within the last 1 year+.
