Description László Németh 2012-05-04 06:32:42 UTC

Newly introduced problem with Graphite 2. Maybe calculation problem of text width result missing hyphenation points with automatic hyphenation: bad looking, loose text with big spaces prevents typesetting with Graphite fonts.

Comment 3 gleppert 2012-05-04 10:39:10 UTC

Thanks for creating this bug. Indeed, hyphenation is a problem. I replicated what Axel did in Bug 36703 and I have the same problem.

Hyphenation is perfectly working with font "Times New Roman", but not correctly with "Linux Libertine G": Short words like "ihren", "Hunden", "wäre" are not hyphenated at all. Longer words like "Niederschlag" hyphenate only partly, e.g. "Nieder-schlag", but never "Nie-derschlag" which would be also correct. Using a non-SIL fonts solves the problems.


System: LO 3.5.3 Ubuntu PPA, Ubuntu 11.10 64-bit, German locale.

proposed fix for hyphenation problem

This fix is untested due to not being able to get make dev-install to handle dictionaries so can't test hyphenation.

Comment 5 Michael Stahl (allotropia) 2012-07-05 14:18:37 UTC

thanks for the patch, it does seem to fix the problem here.

from the description it seems this is a regression.

btw you can just start the dev-install soffice and then use the
extension manager to install the dictionaries in solver/$INPATH/pck/dict*.oxt
