Some characters overlap glid lines and some glid lines are thicker on PDF outputs of vertical Text Grid If you create grid texts according to the following style settings, http://www.transwift.net/ooo/grid_sample_setting_en.html and export it to PDF, then on the PDF outputs, ideographic commas, ideographic full stops and lower corner brackets overlap glid lines because all characters or whole texts look taking slightly upper position, and parts of glid lines look thicker than others. http://www.transwift.net/ooo/pdf_outputs_grid_texts.bmp I will attach three .sxw files created on Redhat 9, SuSE8.2 and Windows98SE. Thanks
Created attachment 8709 [details] Three .sxw files containing grid texts
cp->pl: really a pdf problem ? please have a look
pl->hdu: you're working on the grid problem already, maybe this is a duplicate ?
Issue 18602, issue 18664 and this issue look suspiciously related. I'll work on the problem by first attacking issue 18602.
HDU->PL: as discussed back to you. In pdfwriter_impl.cxx the drawing offsets are wrong for the the rotated glyphs.
I'll see what i can do
pl->hdu: i adjusted the PDF output to what i originally had and now it looks good. However as we saw together the layout is not portable between Linux and Windows even with the same fonts, even on the display alone. You should have another look into this matter IMHO. For the PDF correction just update pdfwriter_impl.cxx in CWS vcl7pp1r3.
Since the display issue is in issue 18599 and this one is fixed I'm setting the status to fixed.
In the comment above replace 18599 by issue 18602.
HDU->US: please verify on CWS vcl7pp1r3
US->HI: From the lines above you may see that the fix targets the PDF problem described in this issue collection. Transferring to HI for evaluation.
Fixed in VCL7pp1rc3.
Set to Verified and will be tested again with OOo 1.1.1
Verified with installed 645m25_8733 = ok
Also verified with the patch = ok
