------- Additional comments from bij...@openoffice.org Thu Sep 10 04:31:55 +0000 2009 ------- Automatic font substitution for missing unicode glyph In firefox we can go to http://ml.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buridan%27s_ass and copy the Malayalam text and paste to http://www.mozilla.org/editor/midasdemo/ Firefox will display Malayalam letters properly. But if paste the same in OpenfOffice, it wont be displayed properly Steps:- 1. Ensure you have Malayalam Unicode font (get Anjali from https://sites.google.com/site/cibu/ ) 2. In firefox goto http://ml.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buridan%27s_ass 3. Copy Malayalam text 4. Open new document in OpenfOffice 5. Paste contents to new OOo document Result:- Text seen as a string of boxes Expected:- Malayalam text properly displayed PS: Firefox has done this, they faced many issues while implementing this so it will better, if OOo team can discuss with Firefox team and avoid those issues, you can see some of those issues listed at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=361783 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
