--- Comment #3 from Hossein <[email protected]> --- @Jonathan: I tried to check if this is a bug from LibreOffice or Harfbuzz. See these outputs from "pango-view" utility: $ pango-view --font="Noto Sans Arabic 256" --rtl --markup --text " -ِ ب" $ pango-view --font="Noto Sans Arabic 256" --rtl --markup --text " -ِ " This is even more interesting! The color red is used in another character! $ pango-view --font="Noto Sans Arabic 256" --rtl --markup --text '-<span color="red">ِ</span>.|' With additional Arabic character, it becomes OK: pango-view --font="Noto Sans Arabic 256" --rtl --markup --text '-<span color="red">ِ</span> ب' Also, compare these two outputs from "hb-view" utility: h1) Extra Arabic character: $ hb-view /usr/share/fonts/truetype/noto/NotoSansArabic-Regular.ttf " -ِ ب" h2) Direction set to auto: $ hb-view /usr/share/fonts/truetype/noto/NotoSansArabic-Regular.ttf " -ِ " h3) Output is similar to h2: $ hb-view --direction=ltr /usr/share/fonts/truetype/noto/NotoSansArabic-Regular.ttf " -ِ " I see the same issue in gedit. If you type kasra as a first character, it falls outside the screen, but when you type additional Arabic character, it comes inside the screen. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
