------- Additional comments from t...@openoffice.org Mon Aug 2 13:12:58 +0000 2010 ------- This is a follow-up to issue 112065. OOo 3.3 will be the first official release with the new OpenSymbol font (v.2.3.9) where Math will make use of the correct Unicode points instead of the one from the private area. As such it is vital that the correct version of the font is font and used. However currently that can not be guaranteed! The problem as I was told is like this: - Setup can not install the new font system wide because usually it does not have the privileges to do so. - vcl on the other hands does ask the system where to get the font. And if there is a system wide one installed that one is preferred even though within the installation there might be a newer version of the OpenSymbol font. Thus the following is likely to occur: User had e.g. OOO 3.2 and thus and old version of the font and his Linux distribution installed that font system wide. Now he is installing OOo 3.3 with the new OpenSymbol font on his own. The new font gets not installed system wide and now if OOo (and specifically Math) gets started the old but still system wide installed font gets used. Thus resulting in Math using the outdated font but with the new code point for OpenSymbol v.2.3.9 -> Every kind of problem may occur because font and code do not match. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
