------- Additional comments from dwwwllw...@openoffice.org Thu Sep 10 05:22:31 +0000 2009 ------- It only happens inside OpenOffice. Typing some characters on a Persian keyboard with Persian fonts messes up the previous characters. Here is how to re-produce it: 1- Install a Persian font, like B Lotus (from http://u.nu/6e273) or B Compset (from http://u.nu/2e273) (The defect happens with all Persian fonts, not just these two) 2- Open a document in OO Write 3- Select the newly installed font, lets say B Compset 4- Change the direction of the paragraph from LTR to RTL 5- Change your keyboard from English to Persian (Farsi) 6- Hold down the Shift key and type the following string of characters one after another without any space between them: ? > < M N B V C X Z 7- Everything will mess up! (you also can have the same bug showing up by this string of the characters (hold down the Shift key): | } { P O I U Y T Other word processors, like AbiWord or MS Office do not have the same bug and handle the same characters with no problem at all (the same font, the same language, the same string of characters, no issue). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
