Re: [libreoffice-users] eastern font in new version
Hi Doug Ah! sorry, to explain it's now referred to as a ROM, for the emulators. Whoever, has taken the code off the tapes/plugin cartridges/CD's etc and created a digital file with the extension .rom. This is now how the games are distributed for the emulators, no more hardware involved. So the only place on today's modern hardware, where you plug the ROM in, is in the emulators folder. Just do a Google search for Emulator game ROM's, and you'll understand what I am on about.

[libreoffice-users] eastern font in new version
I have just installed ver 4 on my ubuntu 13.04 system but when I try to change the set font most if not all are indian script fonts. Is there any way theses can be removed and western fonts installed. I have tried looking in the documentation but there seems to be mention of fonts. cheers dave -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/eastern-font-in-new-version-tp4067630.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

Have you tried adding, say en_GB, to the install? If you are using an Eastern language pack, there may be some setting that does not want you to remove the Eastern fonts. This is just a guess though. What type of Western fonts have you installed on your system? Have you added the MS core fonts? Since they are the default Western font for many people, they might fare better for changing Eastern font settings to Western ones. There has to be some core language setting in either LO or Ubuntu that is hampering the change. I run 12.04, but with the default USA English install, and I have no problems with changing any and all of the default fonts. --- Tools / Language Settings / Languages Do you have the show UI elements for Bi-Directional writing or for East Asian writings checked?
