Despite I input ellipsis into new document, type Microsoft JhengHei:vert=1, they works the same to me on horizontal layout.
I think GDI engine may have own text orientations for specific language that could ignore text orientations specified by common SAL text layput engine, making ellipsis failed to rotate within vertical text, also leads to some fails as bug 103969, bug 105012 reported. Is there anyway to avoid that?
