Alexander Rabtchevich submitted 2 issues in this issue. For his 1st issue I want to add the following details: This appears to me as linked to Issue#: 9060. By changing the printer settings for Graphics rendering -DPI 150,300,600- the character spacing will change. A direct consequence is that the justified text will be un-justified on the right but still justifified on the left. Sometimes the text can can even go outside of the legal limit of the page within OOo. Im not sure which driver does the trouble. It's NOT limited to the PDF driver as I have experienced this issue with other computers without any PDF drivers and just normal HP printer drivers. It is not easy to reproduce it, so here are the steps to make it. Try with the legacy Abode PDF driver or any HP driver under OOo 101 or even Build 643c with the new embedded PDF driver, Win32: 1. Open a new Writer doc. Write 5 lines of justified text on left AND right, Time new roman, size 12. This has to be be real words and real sentences, and the lines have to be different because you want to see the differences from one line relatively to the others. 2. Go in File > Printer setting. Select any printer, change the DPI in graphics option. Confirm. You don't need to print. Go back in OOo and refresh the screen, for example by adding a new page, going on this new page then coming back to the page wih the 5 test lines. You won't see the problem if you don't refresh the Writer's screen. Observe the end of each line. If you dont see a misalignment, then try this step (2) again for another DPI value. Alernatively you can really print instead of just refreshing the screen This does NOT behave the same if you change the DPI from 150 to 300 or 300 to 600 etc ... so becarfull it may takes time before you can reproduce it. Sometimes the character spacing can be very minor, almost invisible, and sometimes it can be 3 cm of difference gainst the normal text. I tryed under 643c. By simpling printing w/ the embedded PDF driver I can see another justification problem as well as Alexander said... but I m not sure if this one is related to the DPI setting in this case. pfiouu ! Both issues with incorrect text aligntment and CR symbol displaying are gone in 1.1 Beta for Windows (at least I couldn't see them more). mci: reassigned to mci@openoffice.org set status to new mci: closed because reporter reported that Bug has gone... . |
