--- Comment #29 from Martin G. <drmg...@freenet.de> --- (In reply to Frédéric Wang from comment #28) > My point is that the proper way to have your changes > accepted by the LibreOffice reviewers is a patch that changes the text > source OpenSymbol.sfd and regenerates the opens___.ttf I think my "patch" is more a work-around than the full solution. I felt that no one of the programmers is working on that bug because it is mentioned in several forums but without any progress. So I tried to check what's wrong with the font file and indeed "fontforge" shows a lot of errors when you validate the file, see https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=73057&p=336508#p336622 . Then I looked for older versions and I found the very old version 1.7 to be Windows 8 compatible. Unfortunately this old version is lacking several glyphs (e. g. the up-right greek letters and the 'underbrace' as mentioned above). Therefore I used "fontforge" to copy the missing glyphs into that file but I don't think that I got all missing glyphs. For my documents it worked and as I saw from other forums for several other users it works, too. However, the right way for Open Office and Libre Office should be that the programmers who have a deep knowledge about true-type fonts (I don't have this knowledge) correct all the bugs in the current version (2.4.3) instead of doing the step back to version 1.7. But meanwhile my patch old version is better than no solution for Win 8 users. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
