Re: [libreoffice-users] how to use japanese ore other language fonts
Hi Rewarp and all the people that gently tried to help me, an huge update of the whole system ( ubuntu lucid linx) seems to have solved a great part of my problem. Now I'm able to write in libreoffice using ibus and anki for input and jiilt (an addon) as inside dictionary. It isn't as smooth as it could be but it's a great headway, anyway. :) I can't use libroffice japanese font yet,but this way is far better than before. About Kiten: it's very usefull but I 'd like, if possible, to use application that are windows manager indipendent because my old desktop pc has some problem keeping Kde function properly. :) Thanks to all Akiko Il 22/04/2011 12:34, Rewarp ha scritto: Hi Akiko. I use ibus + anthy when I want to write something in japanese using , for example my browser or other applications. I also use jwpce 1.50 (tha is an application not a input method and basically I use it as a dictionary but I can also write and copy and past the text in other files). If I write something in jpwce or with anthy and Copy and Paste it in libreoffice ,everithing works fine. On the other side if I try to write directly in libreoffice using Anthy, the anthy bar disappear and I'cant write a single kana. I don't think it is an issue of default Asian languages in LibreOffice, since you can input words with copy and paste. This means it is likely an issue with ibus settings. Can you try installing some other language like Chinese or Korean and try typing with those in LibreOffice? Also, do you use key bindings? Mine invokes ibus with Ctrl-Space. P.S.* *I use Kiten as my dictionary.

Re: [libreoffice-users] how to use japanese ore other language fonts
Thank you Rewarp and ,excuse the delay of the answer but I have to make some testing before. I use ibus + anthy when I want to write something in japanese using , for example my browser or other applications. I also use jwpce 1.50 (tha is an application not a input method and basically I use it as a dictionary but I can also write and copy and past the text in other files). If I write something in jpwce or with anthy and Copy and Paste it in libreoffice ,everithing works fine. On the other side if I try to write directly in libreoffice using Anthy, the anthy bar disappear and I'cant write a single kana. More, In KDE Anthy doesn't work in anyway while In Gnome anthy work quite fine (except when ibus itself crashes). I dont' know if setting default Asian Language is Chinese (Simplified) can make the difference regards AKiko Il 20/04/2011 09:14, Rewarp ha scritto: こんにちは、あきこさん。 You do have a weird problem.

Re: [libreoffice-users] how to use japanese ore other language fonts
Thanks James well Ibus and Anthy work fine when Ibus starts...sometimes it seems to don't want start or to have loose its configurations and I have to re-configure it to make it use Anthy. Definitively I'll try Chinese simplified as default language:) but if it will work I'll really don't know why.. thanks and regards Akiko Il 20/04/2011 10:26, James Wilde ha scritto: On Apr 20, 2011, at 09:14 , Rewarp wrote: こんにちは、あきこさん。 You do have a weird problem.

Re: [libreoffice-users] how to use japanese ore other language fonts
Hi :) If you have a spare 15Gb on your hard-drive then you could always install a dual/multi-boot of Ubuntu. The existing Swap would be used by both but i would do anything fancy like sharing /home partitions. The new boot-loader would pick-up your previous install but i would make sure to boot into your stable Ubuntu rather than this new testing one and then do this on the command-line sudo update-grub This would make sure that your old, stable boot-loader got used booting you straight into your preffered options rather than using the new boot-loader which will get wiped when you have finished testing and delete the test partition.

Re: [libreoffice-users] how to use japanese ore other language fonts
Hi :) Would it be possible to set up a new user account and have that account set to simplified Chinese? Or install Ubuntu inside a virtual machine such as VirtualBox so that you can easily compare menus against your Italian menus?

I have had no problems inputting Japanese into OpenOffice (and now LibreOffice). I am also using Lucid Lynx. Does copy and paste work correctly for Japanese? Other than that, what input method are you using for Japanese? I tried Anthy (m17n) and reverted back to Anthy as the former was buggy. P.S. In fact, my default Asian Language is Chinese (Simplified).

I've enabled both boxes enabled for Asian languages and enabled for CTL. I also have a Default language for documents dialog for Asian in wich I set japanese. So it seems that this step is ok If I try to select a japanese font on the dropdown font menu and write a japanese word, say yume, it just appear wrote in latin instead of kanji or kana. So there must be something that doesn't work, yet Akiko -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
