            Bug ID: 94981
           Summary: Support Graphite on Mac OS X build
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Mac OS X (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

SIL Graphite is only supported on the Windows or Linux builds. It would be
great if SIL Graphite were supported on the Mac OS X build as well.

A LibreOffice document with formatting that uses a SIL Graphite feature, e.g.
with "Gentium Plus:carn=1", will only work on Windows or Linux builds. Opening
the same document on Mac OS X will break the formatting. That should not be.

While Apple provides its own technology with similar capabilities to SIL
Graphite, Apple Advanced Typography (AAT), most fonts that have SIL Graphite
features do not offer AAT features. And even if they did, the Mac OS X build
does not have the capability of controlling AAT features, whereas the SIL
Graphite features can be controlled with expansions to the font name (e.g.
"Gentium Plus:carn=1" instead of plain "Gentium Plus").
