Bug ID: 95060 Summary: Combining Diacritics will not stack when exported to PDF. Product: LibreOffice Version: 5.0.2.2 release Hardware: Other OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: Writer Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: rand_burg...@ntm.org Created attachment 119611 --> https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=119611&action=edit odc file showing the diacritic problem LibreOffice positions and stacks combining diacritics perfectly within Writer and Draw. However, when the page is exported to PDF any letter that has more than one diacritic it prints all diacritics on top of each other rather than stacking them as it should. The result is that the words are totally unreadable in all languages that use that type of letters. I have attached a .odt file that when opened in Writer will show the diacritics displayed correctly using the arial font. The document also has a image of what it looks like after being exported to PDF. If you look at that image you see all diacritics messed up if there is more than one diacritic. Diacritics use anchor points in the font to position themselves correctly. The PDF export is ignoring these anchor points when exporting so they end up all piled up on top of each other. Combining diacritics are marks that sit above or below letters and help that letter to form a new letter. They are used very extensively in different languages though out the World, and PDF export cannot be used by any those languages unless diacritics are positioned correctly. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
