--- Comment #79 from Jon Grossart <[email protected]> ---
So, I've been back to editing those documents again, but I've since done a full
reinstall of W10 (so, third version of Windows on these documents) and switched
to the 64-bit version of LibO with the release of 5.0.

There are two types of corruptions that I've seen (again, only with the
headers):

1. corruption with the headers having missing letters and being broken across
multiple lines

2. corruptions where the texts just gets jumbled and misplaced on the line
(sometimes even being off of the actual visible page (like being placed on the
gray area outside the document

Since my upgrade, I haven't yet seen #1, but I now have a 100% reproducible
case for #2. And thankfully, it's even happening in a short document based on
the default template!

Notes:
1) the corruption only happens on certain fonts
2) it's only a messed up spacing, but it has the same characteristics as the
other types of corruption, mostly type #2 and it still gets output to the PDF
3) it does seems font type related (some fonts works correctly other's don't --
including Ubuntu, which is the one I've been having the trouble with).
4) windows only. The same file on Linux (openSUSE TW with 5.0.3) renders fine.
5) It's best seen in the non-printing characters which shows up messed up
placement of the text relative to the spaces and end of paragraph.
6) this error is also present in the Default Style as well (which is a change
from before)

Since it seems like I could make the old one happen depending on the font used,
it seems that the whole situation has something to do with the font rendering,
maybe the kerning support.

Fonts Tested:
Working: Arial, Liberation Sans, Liberation Serif, Times New Roman, Noto Sans,
Noto Serif, Segoe UI

Not Working: Bitstream Vera Sans, Fontin, Genitum, Open Sans Light, PT Sans, PT
Serif, Ubuntu, Verdana

I've loaded the same fonts in NexuFont in Windows to show that the fonts
themselves don't have trouble outside of LibO.
