Hi :) Is anyone using a Mac and able to quickly check that Urdu language works? There is no point in getting bogged down in it (on this list) but if it's easy then it would be nice to know. I might try to ask the Urdu localisation team as they are likely to know more about issues already. Regards from Tom :)

I've got Libro3.4.4 on WinXP. So it might be specific to Mac. Only to be sure, you are using the odt-format? Do the spaces occur all the time, with newly written text and with pasted text as well? Does the status bar shows the correct language before you write any character? If not, change the settings in the paragraph style 'Default'. In addition you should look in the tab 'Asian Typography' whether checking or unchecking the setting 'Apply spacing to...' can solve the problem. You should write a bug report and attach a faulty document there. http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport Kind regards Regina -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/documentation/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
