Bug ID: 169873
Summary: Drop cap adds incorrect right margin when letter is
part of ligature
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 24.8.0.3 release
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Paragraphs that have a drop cap letter which is part of a ligature (for
example, "Th" in Adobe Garamond Pro) will have an incorrect right margin
applied to the first letter, leading to a lot of blank space.
It seems to already be occurring since about 24.8.0.3, according to this post:
https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/drop-cap-on-letter-t-results-in-a-extra-blank-space-to-the-right/110216/8
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new document, set your font to Adobe Pro Garamond or another font
that has a Ligature for "Th"
2. Enable drop caps
3. Type a paragraph starting with the word "The"
4. (Don't press enter, sometimes that makes the error disappear again)
5. If you edit the character style or paragraph style and edit the font
features to disable Standard ligatures, the issue disappears.
Actual Results:
The T has a lot of right margin.
Expected Results:
The T has a normal amount of margin, just as if using a combination of letters
that doesn't have a ligature (like "Tz")
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
Additional Info:
Not that backspacing and typing the T again will make it look correct again,
but saving the document or exporting as PDF reintroduces the error.
