------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Oct 30 10:58:33 +0000 2008 ------- The TraditionalArabic font reports at point size 24 a minimal kashida width of 20! To compare, other fonts (Arial, ArabicTypesetting) report 4 at the same size. ScriptTextOut has problems with justification widths larger than the glyph advance width (usually one or two extra pixels don't cause much harm) and smaller than the minimal kashida width. These cases are pretty much covered by the writer engine and by the KashidaWordFix. If we now have an extra width of let's say 22, we need to put out two overlapping kashida glyphs, one justified to the left and one justified to the right in this 22 pixel space, to cover the two pixel gap. I can only guess, that this is what ScriptTextOut does. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
