However, not all of the features are working, or maybe I don't understand how to use them. All ligature styles, small caps, old style numerals and fractions are working. But the fancy No. and the 1st options do nothing. And the superscript and subscript options don't work either, nor do the slashed zero or minus sign, and the en-dash correction just adds a space after a hyphen instead of converting it to an en-dash with spaces. I'm also curious why this works only with the LinuxLibertineG fonts. Adobe InDesign had these features 14 years ago, and they have always worked with any OTF font installed on the computer, assuming the font has the required glyphs properly encoded with the correct Unicode values. I need to read up more on exactly what Graphite is. -- 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
