Roman Eisele <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEEDINFO |NEW --- Comment #5 from Roman Eisele <[email protected]> --- Thank you very much for the sample file! Using Emir Sarı’s sample file, this bug is easily REPRODUCIBLE with LibreOffice 3.6.4.1 on Mac OS X (10.6.8). The bug is already reproducible with the same results in LibreOffice 3.3.0 (and all following versions), and also reproducible in AOO 3.4.0, so this bug is probably inherited from OOo. The bug is also still reproducible in the newest master builds. Which fonts work and which don’t? I tested the fonts installed on my machine which include complete Arabic character sets, and found: LibreOffice connects letters (correct) with * Al Bayan * Baghdad * DecoType Nashkh * Geeza Pro * Kufi Standard GK * Nadeem LibreOffice fails to connect letters (wrong) with * Arial * Arial Unicode MS * Microsoft Sans Serif * Tahoma * Times New Roman (This suggests to me a simple idea: IIRC, all fonts in the former (correct) group are installed by Apple/Mac OS X itself; all fonts in the later (wrong) group come from Microsoft (Office etc.) :-) No, I don’t want to blame Microsoft; my idea is rather that ATSUI (and thus LibreOffice?) may *know* about the fonts in the correct group, i.e. recognize them correctly as Arabic fonts, but does *not* know about the latter group, and therefore does not know about these fonts. Is this possible? I don’t know, but a developer experienced in this area could tell us about that ...) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
