Bug #: 44023 Summary: Combining diacritics drawn too low on capital letters Classification: Unclassified Product: LibreOffice Version: LibO 3.4.4 release Platform: All OS/Version: Linux (All) Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: medium Component: Writer AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org ReportedBy: yaoziy...@gmail.com Created attachment 54647 --> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=54647 LibreOffice Writer in a Fedora 16 virtual machine showing Á À Â Ã Ā In LibreOffice Writer under Linux, if you type the capital letter "A" and then a Unicode combining character (e.g. U+0301 which draws an acute mark above the preceding character), you will see the acute mark drawn too low, overlapping with "A". To reproduce this bug, start "charmap" in GNOME or "kchar" in KDE, type "A" in the charmap program's "Text to copy" field, and then go to the combining character U+0301 and insert it to the "Text to copy" field. Now you should have an Á (A with an acute mark). Now copy this text into LibreOffice Writer, and now you see, whatever font you use, the acute mark is always drawn too low, crossing with "A". This is caused by LibreOffice/OpenOffice's Linux font rendering engine, I think. Windows versions of LibreOffice/OpenOffice don't have this bug at all. The attached screenshot is a LibreOffice Writer in a Fedora 16 virtual machine showing Á À Â Ã Ā. Each of them is the capital letter A plus a combining character (U+0301, U+0300, U+0302, U+0303, U+0304). You can see the diacritics are drawn too close to "A". The font used is Liberation Serif, but this bug applies to all fonts. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
