Ming Hua <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #2 from Ming Hua <[email protected]> --- I don't know much about MS Word specifications, but I want to chime in that for East Asian vertical text users (currently AFAIK only Japan and Taiwan use it in regular daily life), Han characters (Kanji) and Japanese Hiragana/Katakanas are supposed to be shown upright. That is, we prefer the way LO display it, and would consider Word 2010 "wrong". Of course, the example document is constructed in a rather strange way, it is essentially eight lines (rows for horizontal text, "columns" for vertical text) with one character in each line. I'm not sure how a regular multiple-character line text would display in a similar setup. I'm from mainland China, and don't use vertical text much, either in LO or with MS format. But I would urge any developer working on this to consult with East Asian community/users first, before deciding we want to emulate MS Word's behavior. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
