Khmer Unicode font vowel rendering problem
Last modified: 2014-02-12 14:31:09 UTC
I am running OpenOffice that shipped with Ubuntu Maverick. When using Khmer, I enter these two keys, [any cosonant: u1780-17a2] + u17be, the resulting syllable does not render correctly. The problem *ONLY occurs with the 'KhmerOS Freehand' and 'KhmerOS Fasthand' fonts*. All other fonts shipped in that font set, which is the standard KhmerOS set work, correctly. Further, this problem only occurs in OpenOffice, not in gedit or any other program on my Ubuntu system. I can provide screenshots of both the way it looks and the way it is supposed to look if needed. I appears that OpenOffice is rendering vowel u17c1 BEFORE it renders the inputted vowel u17be. I found this by inputting the consonant + u17c1 + u17be (which, as designed, does not work correctly). Lastly, if you input only u17be by itself, without a consonant, it renders two of the same symbols before the consonant, instead of only one, as it is should.
