------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Mar 13 20:48:23 +0000 2008 ------- Apologies is this is already logged somewhere else, I did try to search for similar sounding issues (anything mentioning font substitutions) but couldn't see anything which looked related. I was just testing Ooo 2.4.0rc4 on Intel Linux from the OOo_2.4.0rc4_20080307_LinuxIntel_install_en-US.tar.gz archive and spotted a difference in behaviour compared to 2.3.1 In OOo 2.3.1 when displaying a document which contains glyphs in the 'wingding' this gets substituted on screen for something which contains at least some of the right symbols. On 2.4.0rc4 they seem to be substituted by characters from some other (default?) font. It looks to me like a sans-serif mono-spaced font but I can't easily guess which one. On printing both 2.3.1 and 2.4.0 do the same substitution into OpenSymbol - well one does it into OpenSymbolFID145HGSet1 and the other into OpenSymbolFID162HGSet1 but that is probably just the variation because of the share/fonts/truetype/opens___.ttf files included I assume. Visually both printouts look the same to me. [ Actually Ooo2.4.0rc4 includes TimesNewRoman in the generated ps while 2.3.1 didn't, but that may just be to avoid using Times-Roman as a substiutution (since we do have the extra ttf fonts) ] I hope I got the Priority right, I certainly don't think this is important enough to delay the release. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
