Problem with Zapf Dingbats
Last modified: 2004-04-24 20:03:15 UTC
When printing a document with the Zapf Dingbats graphics inserted, the graphic appears correctly on the screen,but the print is two lines up (try "Insert > Special Characters). I don't know if this is an OOo defect or a defect in the coding of Zapf Chancery. I have to use one of the pencil graphics to print out a star graphic -- weird. Will attach a copy of the font.

Unfortunately, this is still in RC3. I am almost certain the problem is with the Zaph Dingbats font and not OOo.
Hi, Is this still present in 1.1.0 ? Thanks
After etensive conversations with MAC, Solaris, Windows, Uinix, Linux and some other strange OS's, I conclclude that the Zapf Chancery is no good. It ides not follow stadard coding practices. If they want to be taken seriously, they need to code seriosly. Robert Black Eagle
This apparently was not a Zapf Dingbats problem as in 1.1.1rc it works as expected. The problem no longer appears.
ok, closing for now, please reopen, if you can reprocude with a recent stable build.

Just a follow-up. Works perfectly in 1.1.2rc. I will not bother checking again unless it crops up by accident (that is my normal usage -- not actually by accident). Thanks to the developers and volunteers for fixing this.
