Description Michael Vlasenko 2018-07-22 21:30:34 UTC
Description:
When you import the text into a LibreOffice word processor you will see the problem in Hebrew text

Steps to Reproduce:
Specifically for the test, I created the file in RTF format. See attachment.
This file may be correctly viewed using WordPad or MS Word. 
But when you import the text into a LibreOffice word processor you will see the problem in Hebrew text.


Actual Results:
The Hebrew font "Times New Roman" is replaced by a "Lucida Sans Unicode" (It depends on the settings of the LibreOffice Writer, maybe another). The font size is also incorrect. 

Expected Results:
Should be the 11th pin, but it is displayed on the 12th.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
This problem is only with the Hebrew text. The rest of the text is displayed correctly.

Can you please minimize the test case so that it only has _one_ line?

Also, do you see the same problem with Arabic text?

In Word 2010, I see everything in Times New Roman font (as stated by OP), but everything is also in size 12 font. So, like other things, they probably change their defaults in different situations.

I notice that in Word 2010 - the Normal paragraph style has size 11 for both Latin and CTL. In Writer, both of these are set to 12.

There is no style definition section in the RTF, so styles will just be LO defaults. So there may be a "bug" here that LO doesn't use the right defaults in the case where there is no {\stylesheet.

\f2 - the font being applied to the CTL scripts, is defined as \fRoman, so that suggests that it should not be applied to \fbidi scripts.

But even if I change it to \fbidi, that didn't fix it. That's because it isn't implemented yet, and all font changes are considered _ascii

Changing to a non-Hebrew-specific meta bug, as per comments #8 and #10.
