Created attachment 178656 [details] Testkit hi there! I found that Calc, Impress and Craw display protected hyphens as small boxes for the default font "Liberation Sans". If the font is changed to any other font, the protected hyphens are displayed as expected. only writer is not affected by this bug. I have attached a presentation as testkit. ------------------------------------------------------------ Version: 7.3.0.3 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 30(Build:3) CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.4; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8); UI: de-DE Ubuntu package version: 1:7.3.0~rc3-0ubuntu0.18.04.1~lo1 Calc: threaded
No problem here with that file. Maybe you could also try on another machine, if you can. Arch Linux 64-bit Version: 7.3.1.3 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 30(Build:3) CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.16; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: fi-FI (fi_FI.UTF-8); UI: en-US 7.3.1-1 Calc: threaded
Fwiw, the "protected hyphen" is U+2011 "‑" NON-BREAKING HYPHEN and that character is not present in the Liberation Sans font (check in Special Character dialog), so a fallback replacement is used. However, I can't reproduce the problem either and it renders just fine (whatever font might be used there).
All other Applications (including Writer, but also OnlyOffice and Abiword) are not affected by this bug. Additional info: I have installed two packets of the Liberation fonts. I will attache screenshot. The older package is a dependence that OnlyOffice requires.

In case Eike is right, Calc/Impress/Draw should adopt Writer's replacement scheme.
Please test with a clean profile, Menu/Help/Restart in Safe Mode
(In reply to m.a.riosv from comment #6) > Please test with a clean profile, Menu/Help/Restart in Safe Mode Hi m.a.riosv, thanks for commenting. I get the same bad result in safe mode. :-(
Since I have installed two different versions of Liberation fonts maybe Impress/Draw/Calc select the wrong version. I have installed - Version 1.07.4, Copyright (c) 2007 Red Hat, Inc. All rights reserved. LIBERATION is a trademark of Red Hat, Inc. and - Version 2.00.2, Digitized data copyright (c) 2010 Google Corporation. Copyright (c) 2012 Red Hat, Inc.
I found a workaround. After uninstalling the package "fonts-liberation2" the protected hyphen is also correctly rendered in Calc/Impress/Draw. https://packages.ubuntu.com/de/bionic-updates/fonts/fonts-liberation2
Adjusted summary. Calc/Impress/Draw need a patch to deal with new versions of Liberation Sans font.
Easy steps to reproduce: - Install package "fonts-liberation2" - Open the attached Testkit Note that the protected hypen is not rendered for Liberation Sans font. Instead a small box is displayed.
