Description Joseph Massucco 2021-01-11 22:12:51 UTC
Description:
Noticed that when typing in Libre Writer doc using New York font the lower case x, y, and z did not display (actually x was replaced by '"'. At first thought font file was broken, so tried Apple Pages and it was OK. Is there some kind of keyboard mapping in Libre that is New York specific? Tried printing the doc to see if characters were actually there, but mirrored screen exactly.

Steps to Reproduce:
Launch Libre Writer, select New York font, type upper and lower case alphabet.

Actual Results:
see above

Expected Results:
Same


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Should have allowed x, y, and z to display and print properly.

On which MacOS version are you?
Is New York font present out of the box or is it a font you bought or downloaded?

6.3 like 6.4 branches are EOL.
Could you give a try at last stable LO version 7.0.4 ?

I’m on Mac OS X 10.15.7 (19H15). Right now, I can’t remember if it was downloaded or from a cd. I’ll try downloading the later version to see if the problem persists.

This is the only real problem I’ve had with Libre since I started using it (more than I can say for Micosoft’s %$#%^& product).
