Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 20402
Some Italic fonts are not italic in pdf
Last modified: 2003-09-30 18:12:55 UTC
I have two extra added fonts - Colona MT and Playbill. If I write some text using this two fonts and I make them italic, then make export into pdf. In PDF they are not as italic but as normal... (bold, underline and other styles are ok)
Created attachment 9824 [details] These are problem fonts (export into pdf)
sorry, this is not a bug. Windows XP provides artificial embolding and italic of fonts where these shapes are not available from file. That works for the display (and I think for printing) but when it comes to PDF creation we are on our own. Since there is no system service or function to offer this embolding and we haven't yet implemented it you are stuck to the fonts and fontshapes that are installed.
will be fixed in 2.0 *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 16410 ***
