------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Sep 10 02:20:43 -0700 2006 ------- Problem: There are some misspellings in the file VCL.xcu regarding a set of 4 Japanese primary MS fonts whose name begins with a sequence of fullwidth letter M and S. Impact: Leaving the misspellings untouched results in failure of choosing a default font name of the applications - Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw - on Windows. Each application mistakenly chooses the first one - default font name for Solaris - from the list of possible default font names defined in the file VCL.xcu since the application on Windows cannot find an appropriate font name due to the misspellings. Consequently, the interoperability with other applications on Windows is broken. Creating a document from the scratch with OpenOffice.org on Windows and saving it in Microsoft Office file format, and opening it with Microsoft Office results in different text layout. Microsoft Office cannot find the font name for Solaris specified in the original document and then uses its own default font, instead. Patch: Here is a procedure to correct misspellings regarding a set of 4 Japanese MS fonts in the file VCL.xcu revision 1.54. To correct them, substitute a sequence of fullwidth letter M, S, and ideograph space with a sequence of fullwidth letter M, S, and normal space by the following command: perl -i.bak -pe 's/(\xef\xbc\xad)(\xef\xbc\xb3)(\xe3\x80\x80)/$1$2 /g' VCL.xcu Information 1: For the previous release, 2.0.3, Japanese community has provided Japanese users with a corrected file VCL,xcu and an installer that easily installs the file into user's installation set of OpenOffice.org 2.0.3. Information 2: Microsoft Windows variants Japanese comes with a font "MS UI Gothic" as a UI font, which is one of the three fonts collected in the font file MSGOTHIC.TTC. Our file VCL.xcu, however, currently does not use the font for UI. It is not a big deal, but the font MS UI Gothic is used by other Windows applications as a default UI font and is slightly thiner than MS PGothic, our current one, and saves room for smaller resolution of display device. That could be taken of in the near future. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
