Description Kenneth Hanson 2020-03-31 20:32:28 UTC
Description:
Under Character Formatting > Font Effects, one can choose "character emphasis" from among the following: dot, circle, disk, and accent. They are supposed to place a mark above or below each character.

These render (badly) in LO, but not when printing or exported as PDF. Instead, a single mark appears somewhere above the formatted character sequence. Furthermore, the vertical and horizontal position varies depending on the choice of print or export. Neither seems to get even its single dot in the right place for any particular character, compared to the LO UI.

Three examples are provided: a test document, a PDF produced by print-to-file (not sure of this is due to LO or my OS, but it's in the print dialog), and a PDF produced by export-to-PDF.

OS is Kubuntu 19.10.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add character emphasis
2. Print to file or export to PDF
3. View result

Actual Results:
One emphasis mark appears over the formatted character sequence.

Expected Results:
One emphasis mark appears over each character in the formatted sequence.


Reproducible: Always

Larger font demonstrates just how bad the vertical placement is.

I've only tested PDF-Export and I can confirm the described behaviour with attachment from comment 1. But I couldn't find emphasis setting under Format => Character => Font Effects

Is it possible to add a screenshot from that dialog?

You need to enable CJK ("Asian Language") support.

Sorry, I didn't realize this wasn't always there. I tested just now and it does not appear when CJK support is disabled.
