Bug ID: 107250
Summary: Kerning is unexpectedly tight for repeated "1"s in
Liberation Sans and Arial
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.2.6.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: graphics stack
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
In LibreOffice on both Windows and Mac, some fonts such as Arial and Liberation
Sans have an odd rendering/kerning quirk. The digits in these fonts normally
align with one another, but when two "1"s appear next to each other, they are
kerned more tightly.
This does *not* appear to be related to the Pair Kerning option in Writer - the
same issue appears regardless of whether Pair Kerning is set. The same
rendering issue even appears in Calc, which makes columns of numbers look
awkwardly misaligned when some of them contain "11" as a substring.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. In either Writer or Calc, enter the following numbers, one per line, setting
the font to either Liberation Sans or Arial: 123456, 121212, 212121, 111111.
Actual Results:
The lines all appear to be the same length.
Expected Results:
The first three lines are of equal length, but the last line (111111) is
noticeably narrower.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
