Hello Open Office,

I have in general been very pleased with your product but would like to mention the following problems I have had in hopes that you may improve them in future editions.

1. several problems occur with IPA in unicode. when an upside down breve mark (U+032F) is put below a vowel rather than displaying correctly the preceding letter (i.e. the letter carrying the diacritic) is copied and move to the right. Actually this happens with all of the 'combining diacritic marks'.

2. when Tibetan characters are put in a font which does not have glyphs for them rather than appearing as boxes they take up no space at all. A result, is that after switching fonts these characters can be hard to find. (I personally would appreciate it if when one did a global font change characters not contained in the new font would be left in the old. Certainly no one would want them to just disappear.)

3. Tone characters look right on screen, but do not combine correctly when exporting as a pdf. Actually there is also a problem in the display too, although the tone characters combine correctly each adds a space, so one can end up with rather long trailing spaces after tone characters which sould not be there.

4. The sub script ra-btags is not correctly displayed in Tibetan, it should always appear lower and never bissect other glyphs.

I use windows XP.

If I can provide more information about these problems that would help developers to fix them please let me know.

best regards,

--Nathan

Hi Nathan

The best way to approach this sort of problem is to start a bug report in issuezilla See http://www.openoffice.org/issues/query.cgi

Check whether anything similar has been reported, then you will have to register on the site to be able to start a report or comment, provide examples for current issues.

OOo 2.3 is the latest, it would be good to try this if it is not what you are using.
