------- Additional comments from h...@openoffice.org Mon May 3 09:59:23 +0000 2010 ------- Currently it is possible to assign values for expanded or condensed spacing for all scripts. This does not make sense for cursive scripts though. WriterEngine/EditEngine should then either ignore (even better: disallow) it or they should accumulate the expanded space into the locations suggested by normal justification method for this script, i.e. into spaces or into the kashida positions. Please note that the approach suggested in issue 108684 would solve this too. Let WriterEngine/EditEngine distribute the target text widths and let the shaping engines do their stuff itself instead of micromanaging the logical glyph positions. This approach would result in something similar to the third solution mentioned above. I'll attach a simple sample document showing the problem in Arabic. The problem happens for many other scripts too e.g. for Latin text when a cursive font such as a "Schreibschrift" font is selected for this text. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
