------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Feb 28 11:12:42 -0800 2005 ------- > SBA: OK in 680m78. Closed. I disagree. "Using 'Palatino Linotype' font causes wrong caret movement" was a very restrictive description of the problem, but the comments show it was much more complex: ------- Additional comments from hdu Tue Oct 26 02:45:24 -0800 2004 ------- Darn, it looks like even for non-CTL text the OpenType features of the font is triggered since SP2. With automatic ligatures the mnCharCount==mnGlyphCount assumption in SimpleWinLayout is no longer true... 1. The problem was not only with Palatino Linotype but with *thousands* of OpenType fonts having a (liga) feature for Latin script (I have written a fairly complete list of these fonts here: <http://cgm.cs.mcgill.ca/~luc/linard.html>) 2. The problem is triggered by a new version of Uniscribe (usp10.dll), which brings support of the (liga) feature for Latin script, i.e. the versions included in: - Windows XP SP2 - Windows 2003 SP1 - Windows Longhorn 3. It wasn't only a "wrong caret movement" problem, but, as hdu said: ------- Additional comments from hdu Fri Oct 29 01:23:25 -0800 2004 ------- Automatic Ligatures on some systems cause *metrics problems* The issue 27336 will more appropriately be named "Metrics problems with OpenType fonts on recent Windows versions". And the metrics problems are solved for OpenType fonts with TrueType outlines only on screen, not in print. For OpenType fonts with CFF (PostScript) outlines, it works neither on screen nor in print. Look at the message from hdu, November 4: ------- Additional comments from hdu Thu Nov 4 08:05:15 -0800 2004 ------- HDU->SBA: please verify in CWS usp4all - also check with other fonts with similar problems to Palatino (like Brioso*, Adobe Brioso Pro is an OpenType CFF font, did you make the test? If you don't have Brioso anymore, install Adobe Reader 7, take the OpenType fonts (*.otf) in C:\ProgramFiles\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Resource\Font\ and copy them in C:\Windows\Fonts. You can then test Adobe Minion Pro and Adobe Myriad Pro, and see that the problem is still here. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
