I would assume that in addition to functional testing through automation(combination of various fonts,sizes etc) the tenets like reliability, accessibility, interoperability, security(fuzz testing), different architectures(amd, intel 32 bit, 64 bit etc), stress(extremely long file reaching space constraints), internationalization etc should be looked at.
