Description Unknown 2002-02-03 23:44:06 UTC

While editing any document in swriter I can consistently frezze the application
by just scrolling down the list of available fonts in the tools bar font window,
the one right beside the paragraph style window.

I typically get up to the following list of fonts when the freeze occurs:

Times
Times New Roman
Trebuchet MS
Verdana

I might be that I don't have some of the (about to be listed) fonts in my
machine but a freeze due to this should never occur.

Joost: usually an X application always crashes if it gets in contact
with broken fonts...just as a hint... Maybe you're working with a
Linux distro using one of these XFree 4.1.0 with buggy libxrender (I
would update this one)

SDuVal 3/6/02: Problem appeared for me after installing TrueType fonts
(symlinks to usr/share/fonts/ttf) in the
openoffice/share/fonts/truetype dir. The anti-aliasing looks GREAT.
Unfortunately, the bug freezes the entire KDE desktop and requires
hard boot. Why doesn't the writer use the system shared fonts?

Reassigned to Ulf.

OOo 1.0.1 has been released.  If the problem still exists in OOo 
1.0.1, please post a new issue with step by step instructions on how 
to reproduce this issue.

Consider reading the font FAQ:

As mentioned on the qa dev list on March 5th I will close all resolved
<wontfix/duplicate/worksforme/invalid> issues. Please see this posting for
details. First step in IssueZilla is unfortunately to set them to verified.
