--- Comment #5 from Radu Rendec <r...@rendec.net> ---
I agree, you definitely do not want the document to re-flow due to changes in
hinting mode. However, hinting should only affect kerning, not glyph advances.
In other words, it should not cause the document to re-flow.

As always with full hinting, I am willing to sacrifice kerning for glyph
aspect. I totally understand you cannot have both.

In the meantime, I tried to start LibreOffice with the SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN
environment variable set to "gen", as suggested here:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/FirstSteps#Rendering_issues_specific_to_Linux.
The UI is messed up (which is expected), but font hinting inside the document
view works as expected.

I'm not sure if it's relevant, but my desktop environment is MATE.
