Public bug reported:
I have copied and pasted the webpage
'https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/msttcorefonts/+bug/1607535' into
LibreOffice, so as to be able to print and read it. The resulting page is
incomplete. Thus, for example, at [Workaround 1], where the the following
command line is specified:
$ wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/corefonts/
{andale32.exe,arial32.exe,arialb32.exe,comic32.exe,courie32.exe,
georgi32.exe,impact32.exe,times32.exe,trebuc32.exe,verdan32.exe,
webdin32.exe}
only the following text appears:
$ wget http://
{
georgi32.
webdin32.exe}
The HTML code for that text is:
<p> $ wget <a rel="nofollow"
href="http://downloads.sourceforge.net/corefonts/";>http://<wbr />downloads.<wbr
/>sourceforge.<wbr />net/corefonts/</a><br />
{<wbr />andale32.<wbr />exe,arial32.<wbr />exe,arialb32.<wbr
/>exe,comic32.<wbr />exe,courie32.<wbr />exe,<br />
georgi32.<wbr />exe,impact32.<wbr />exe,times32.<wbr />exe,trebuc32.<wbr
/>exe,verdan32.<wbr />exe,<br />
webdin32.exe}</p>
The problem is triggered by the <wbr /> tag. Where one of these occurs in the
HTML, all subsequent text is omitted until either a <br /> or a <a ...> tag is
reached (and of course there may be others).
As there are 956 <wbr /> tags in this document, much of the text is missing
after pasting. If the all the <wbr /> tags are removed from the page, copying
and pasting works fine.
I shall be grateful for help with the problem, as it means that that with
LibreOffice copying and pasting is unreliable.
