------- Additional comments from lpiet...@openoffice.org Tue Nov 9 09:59:03 +0000 2010 ------- In Impress 3.2.0, when I use Unicode characters that are not contained in the currently selected font, relying on automatic font substitution for missing glyphs, the strings are displayed fine in normal editing, but produce unpredictable mojibake in presentation mode. It is not the missing letters themselves that get displayed wrong, but the presence of missing letters causes the display of random other letters to be corrupted. This is on Ubuntu Linux version 10.4 (also happened on earlier Ubuntu versions and earlier OOo) To reproduce: create a presentation slide with three textboxes, containing the following three strings, all formatted with the Liberation Sans font: 1. abc→ἇ 2. abc→ 3. abc ἇ Note that the arrow character (→, U+2192) is contained in Liberation Sans, while the accented Greek character (ἇ, U+1F07) is not. In editing mode, all characters are displayed correctly. The ἇ character is automatically substituted from some other font (FreeSans on my system). In presentation mode, strings 2 and 3 are displayed correctly, but in string 1 the arrow character is replaced with a "ŷ". The ἇ character itself, whose presence causes the problem, is still displayed correctly. The substitutions vary depending on the triggering character and on the fonts involved (e.g. if the requested font is Liberation Sans, the replacement character is a "ŷ"; in Arial, it is "Ÿ".) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
