Re: Font rendering oddities: is this already known?
Hi Olivier, all, I believe what you see are the effects of "pair kerning." (Kerning means to move glyphs closer together/wider apart to make them _seem_ equally far apart as every other letter in that line. The traditional example is "VA," which without kerning would look more like "V A".) I any case, you can turn that off like so: http://www.linuxtopia.org/online_books/office_guides/openoffice_writer_user_guide/openoffice_guide_Kerning_text.html Why LibreOffice does pair kerning instead of kerning whole lines or at least words, I have no idea. Hope that helps, Astron. ___ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice

For the case of writer itself, and the differences from pdf and on-screen etc, one piece of code that has long been on my "figure this out" list is http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/sw/source/core/txtnode/fntcache.cxx#798 and the various glyph-positioning-wiggling going on there.
