Bug ID: 135427
Summary: eps import with text has completely bogus inter-letter
spacing
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 4.2.7.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: filters and storage
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: samuel.thiba...@ens-lyon.org
Description:
When importing a .eps image file containing text and the pstoedit tool is
installed, the result is horrible because the inter-letter spacing is
completely bogus.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new document
2. Insert->Image, select a .eps file containing text
Actual Results:
The image gets inserted, but the letter of the text inside the image are
completely ill-placed.
Expected Results:
The letters of the text should be spaced according to the font, so words can be
read normally.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
Additional Info:
Purging from my system the pstoedit tool avoids the issue (I'm then getting a
rasterized output, lower quality but proper text spacing).
I have been having the issue since ages, libreoffice 4.2, I also tried 6.0.7.3,
6.1.6.3, 6.2.8.2, 6.3.6.2, 6.3.4.2, 7.0.0 rc2, with the same result.
I have dug the issue and found that libreoffice should just pass -nfw to the
pstoedit tool, as actually documented by pstoedit itself. I will submit a merge
request doing this.
