Created attachment 134227 [details] Libreoffice Preference Window 5.2.7 The titles in the preference window of all LO 5.3.x are defect and won't show up under MacOSX El Capitan (10.11.6). See the attached Screenshot.
@Stefan : I'm sorry, I don't understand what you mean. In your screenshot, the titles are displayed. On testing against LO5332 and LO54alpha with OSX 10.12.5, I see the same thing as in your screenshot. Please provide more detail of what should be displayed. Perhaps the issue is limited to OSX 10.11 ? Setting to NEEDINFO, please set back to UNCONFIRMED once you have provided the requested information.

I updated the Screenshot. If you look at them you should clearly see the problem now. ;) I can't say if it's limited to 10.11. I don't have the later 10.12. I checked all my fonts for a faulty one but no result. Which font should be used and what kind of encoding? The effect is independent from the UI language. I use/tested DE, en-GB, ES, PL. Same situation on all those.
@Stefan : thanks for the update. Unfortunately, I can't reproduce here on OSX 10.12.5, so am guessing that it is limited to 10.11. I am using default fonts provided by the OS.
From this post : https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/93029/libreoffice-not-recognizingaccessing-user-fonts-in-osx/ "I've tried quitting and restarting LO; quitting all and restarting the computer; and ditching LO and reinstalling it. I also dumped preferences "com.apple.FontBook.plist" and "com.apple.FontRegistry.user.plist" and cleared all font cache files, as apparently Sierra seems to be having some of its own problems with fonts working in some and not other applications, because of how the OS and apps are using Unicode." Have you tried emptying/recreating your font cache or the other suggestions made by the person above ?
@khaled : does this seem potentially related to the font display code rework that occurred in 5.3 in any way ? I note from the discussion in the Ask link of comment 5 that 5.2.x continues to work correctly, hence my suspicion that it is linked to that work.
@Stefan : the weird symbols are indicative of LO not supporting the font that has been chosen for the entries in the Preferences pane. I have no idea where these choices are made. By default, LO should take the system font (at least that is my understanding), but perhaps: - that font is either unavailable and substituted for a font that it thinks it can support and doesn't, or - LO can no longer support the default system font for OSX 10.11 which is San Francisco, or - you have changed the system font to one that LO doesn't support.
Looks like a font fallback issue and might be related to the text layout re-work since we no longer use the system library for it. IIRC system font was hidden under macOS and need special handling that we don’t currently do, so it is possible that we are unable to select the system font and for some reason failing to do font fallback. Someone with development skills needs to debug it on macOS.
