Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 10874
XFree crash when using times.ttf
Last modified: 2003-09-08 16:56:16 UTC
I have files with footnotes in .doc and .sxw that, when loaded in oowriter and scrolled down to where the footnote is, regularly lead to dumping me out of XFree and into the command line. It happens either in KDE or Gnome. It seems to be partly related to the small size of the fonts in the subscript numbers, but changing the size (and ttf font of footnote char styles) did not totally cure it. The initial pages with no footnotes appear OK. Also, if I remove the (MS originated) times.ttf, which I have set as my default font, and let oowriter use the closest equivalent, the problem goes away. I can reproduce the effect in both RedHat 7.3 and Mandrake 9.0, in both of which I installed OpenOffice1.0.2 in the workstation form. I can provide the .doc files if you like <vpoythress1@netscape.net>. I can't find a way to attach them to this message.
Vern says it's fixed in both Redhat 9 and Mandrake 9.1 (both with OpenOffice 1.0.2), so I guess it was an X bug. He sent me the files in case anyone's curious.
