Description of problem:
Font aliasing of openoffice.org is crazy and
documents are broken.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Write doc on MS Office
2. Put it on FC3T3
3. Open it with ooffice
    

Actual Results:  Crazy Japanese.
Full-width hyphen is missing on display.
Some Japanese text are partialy missing on display.
Japanese punctuation marks shows up vertical writing glpyhs.

Select all documents and set font to 'Kochi Gothic'
and you can see the correct glyphs, except texts in image objects.

I don't think it's normal severity.

an expected screenshot with Kochi Gothic

I just did select all and changed the font for those to Kochi Gothic.

Comment 4 Dan Williams 2004-11-02 18:45:10 UTC
Fix will be in 1.1.2-11

Comment 5 Nakai 2004-11-06 15:37:11 UTC
Comment #2:
Yes, it seems to work.

Comment 6 Dan Williams 2004-11-11 14:21:46 UTC

Reopened. I tested OOo-1.1.2-17.6.EL4. and it breaks this fix again.

Comment 9 Dan Williams 2004-12-10 18:38:06 UTC
Ok, regression is observed when ttfonts-zh_CN is installed and doc is
viewed.

Comment 10 Dan Williams 2004-12-10 22:03:14 UTC
Ok, the real issue here is that OOo is not recognizing the Kochi fonts
(either Gothic or Mincho) as Japanese-enabled fonts, however since the
zh_CN/zh_TW and Korean fonts have localized font names, OOo is able to
detect that and prefers them to the non-localized "kochi" names.  I'll
have to look into how to detect coverage ranges from the font itself,
but I don't think this can get done for RHEL4 GA.

Comment 12 Dan Williams 2004-12-12 19:23:41 UTC
I lied, a fix will be in 1.1.2-18.

Comment 13 Dan Williams 2004-12-15 14:29:12 UTC
1.1.2-18.6.EL4 is in dist-4E

Comment 14 Lawrence Lim 2005-02-21 07:17:26 UTC
Tested with 1.1.2-18.6.EL4, the attached document does not seems to be
broken anymore. However, the font chosen for the display is not Kochi
Gothic but MS font. 

Should it be using the Kochi Gothic font? Is this the acceptable
behaviour? 

Comment 15 Akira TAGOH 2005-02-22 04:58:04 UTC
Yes, because it's an original font name which was used in the
document. and OOo just use the Kochi font for the alternative font.

Comment 16 Akira TAGOH 2005-02-23 08:32:41 UTC
Closing.
