Created attachment 180362 [details] Sample doc 0) start Impress with qt5 VCL plugin on Linux: SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN ./instdir/program/soffice.bin --impress 1) open attached sample document "sample.odp" 2) look how it's displayed Actual result: Instead of the actual title placeholder on the first slide, there are only "rectangles", i.e. the text is rendered incorrectly Expected result: The title placeholder "Click to add Title" should be shown. Further information: * This only happens with the qt5/qt6 VCL plugin with qfont rendering, i.e. not in kf5 by default, and not when setting SAL_VCL_QT5_USE_CAIRO=1 explicitly * The problem remains when typing actual text, e.g. "test" for the title. * This seems to be related to the font "Source Sans Pro Black" used for the title, which is not installed on my system. When switching to another font, the text is displayed just fine. * This might be how Qt handles this, so maybe "Works as designed" (NOTOURBUG) from LO perspective?

I guess I reproduced. Except, not on 1st slide title but on 2nd slide text for "Title, Content" and any slide with Content. I don't see relation to that font, same if changed.
The qt5/qt6 VCL plugins are never enabled automatically, we never advertised them, and the text handling is known to be incomplete and buggy. Unless one is also volunteering to fix these issue, there is no point in reporting them.
