------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Nov 8 01:59:38 -0800 2005 ------- Ok, folks. I have some good news. Mr. Firefly has filled and signed the JCA agreement and faxing it back to Sun, under the Printed Name "Deng Jia Min". I think the folks at Sun can verify his identity thru the e-mail address, which was used in the comment in his patch uploaded here. As a result, may I suggest, after his JCA is verified, that a target milestone version is set for merging this patch - providing most technical issue is solved? This is a must-have usability feature for most CJK users, and will benefit English and other users for handling regular-only font as well. Re: sunmoon1997 > SAL_AUTOHINTING_PRIORITY is a environment variable that you can > enable/disable Is this an environment variable set in the GUI menu of OpenOffice.org, or just in the command line? Or is this a compile option? I am not sure, but can the patch be modified to check for the value of SAL_AUTOHINTING_PRIORITY first before forcing Autohint on the targetted font (and targetted font only) ? Since the Gamma enhancement previously discussed would alleviate some of the unpleasant effect of Autohint, I am inclined to use this option because of the result seen in the CJK font involved, such as this screenshot mentioned by swyear earlier: http://swyear.no-ip.org/resserver.php?blogId=1&resource=ooo2-firefly.png Re: fundawang > The tarball are sets of patches. If anyone want, I could upload it one by one. Let us keep each patch separate and file a bug report of its own. I have read some of the description and it looks like some of the new patches are too CJK-centric (for example, putting CJK font name before English in the font selection menu) and might not fit the generic interest of all OpenOffice.org user base. However, it's fortunate that many of these new patches are very small ones, and filing new bugs for each of them and seeking review should be easy. The small patches would make it easy to read and understand. If I have time I'll get the comment translated to English before trying to get them uploaded with new bug reports on what they are trying to address, so more on this later. But first, we'll want to get this fake style bug fixed because this is simply one of the biggest letdown which CJK OOo Linux users would want to see fixed as soon as possible. I can't wait to recommend my friends to try out StarOffice or OpenOffice.org on Linux once this (visually noticeable) problem is resolved. (On a side note, Mozilla Firefox 1.5 has managed to address CJK printing thru CUPS support, so I begin to believe desktop Linux can expect some uptake in Asia -- that is, if this bug will also be fixed in the near future :) ). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
