------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Apr 17 22:43:47 -0700 2006 ------- I have Asian languages support enabled. My default languages are English (UK) (Western) and Chinese (simplified) (Asian). The problem is with Space and Ambiguous-Width Unicode characters. When a Chinese font is used for Asian text and Western font used for Western text (default in my case), the current rule seems to be: - When a space or ambiguous character occurs at the beginning of a paragraph or after a manual line break, or after another character that is applied the Western font, the Western font is applied; otherwise (when it occurs after a character that is applied the Chinese font, say, a normally input Chinese characters or a ASCII character that is applied the Chinese font) the Asian font is applied. This causes headaches in the following scenarios: 1) For a phrase like "测试“test”" (whether imported from a Word file or directly input), the left quote will appear in the Chinese font SimSun, but the right quote will appear in the Western font Times New Roman. 2) For a phrase like "测试 test 测试", the first space will be in Chinese font, and the second will be in Western font. 3) For a phrase like "测试“测试”", if I insert a manual break before the left quote, the left quote will be in Western font suddenly. The rule of Word seems to be simpler. When importing text under a East Asian enabled environment, all the ambiguous-width characters are applied the East Asian font, and spaces are always applied the Western font; unless one manually chooses another font for the text. It seems more reasonable and intuitive. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
