Comparison of Writer and Word

Repro in

Version: 7.3.3.2 / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 30(Build:2)
CPU threads: 16; OS: Linux 5.13; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 (cairo+xcb)
Locale: pt-BR (pt_BR.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Ubuntu package version: 1:7.3.3~rc2-0ubuntu0.21.10.1~lo1
Calc: threaded

See in the attached image the comparison of how Writer (left) and Word (right) render the file.

Note that the difference is not only in the text color, but also that in Word the font has some sort of blurred outline, which is something we still don't support in Writer and that should be implemented.

Happy news!

I still can reproduce this with

  Version: 25.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
  Build ID: 044980edc41544dd5973d5aa57f134d4bfe6d0e7
  CPU threads: 12; OS: Linux 6.10; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
  Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US

Alas with

  Version: 25.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
  Build ID: 044980edc41544dd5973d5aa57f134d4bfe6d0e7
  CPU threads: 12; OS: Linux 6.10; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
  Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US

and in particular via

  https://git.libreoffice.org/core/commit/3eac847927a0cdfa40c3fea38c473ed2ad7faecc

  tdf#161826 - Add uniform Glow effect for texts in shapes

this appears fixed.
