Description maga 2018-02-12 07:53:54 UTC
Description:
A document created and saved in LibreOffice 6.0.0 was displayed completely warped when opened after updating to 6.0.1 on Windows 10. Something with the font display seemed to fail.

Opening the same document with a local administrator account worked fine.
Assigning change access rights to the program folder for regular users on Windows 10 solved the problem.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a writer document in LibreOffice 6.0.0 without local admin rights
2. Write some lines of text
3. Open the same document in Libreoffice 6.0.1 without local admin rights
4. The text is sized differently and line-wrapped in other places than before.

Actual Results:  
Font is displayed different in 6.0.1 than it used to be on 6.0.0 when working as non-admin 

Expected Results:
Write access to program folder should not be needed to display the font correctly


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No


OpenGL enabled: Yes

Perhaps you installed it as administrator ("not for everyone")?
Could you uninstall it and install again?
This does not sound like a bug.
