Reproduced with: Version: 7.3.6.1 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 92b673af3a5e8f7cf4716be88dfaca424612f244 CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: fa-IR (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded This is not actually related to shapes, or filters. Copy the same text that contains ff, which contains a ligature: Ligature (writing) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligature_(writing) When using ligatures, "ff" is drawn as ligature "ff", and when you are changing the character spacing, the ligature parts will stick together, and look wrong. Unicode Character “ff” (U+FB00) https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/U+FB00 To avoid using ligatures, use the font family name with the addition of "liga=0", such as: "Calibri:liga=0". A solution to this problem would be disabling ligatures when setting a custom character spacing. This is also what happens in MS Word.
Created attachment 182241 [details] Minimal example showing the problem using ligatures + custom character spacing In this example, there are two lines of text. 1st line: "afft", character spacing: 20pt, font family: "Noto Serif" 2nd line: "afft", character spacing: 20pt, font family: "Noto Serif:liga=0"
Created attachment 182242 [details] minimal example showing tt ligature + Calibri font In this example, there are two lines of text. 1st line: "attic", character spacing: 20pt, font family: "Calibri" 2nd line: "attic", character spacing: 20pt, font family: "Calibri:liga=0" Compared to the above document, it shows tt ligature. The "Noto Serif" font seem s to lack it.
> Compared to the above document, it shows tt ligature. The "Noto Serif" font > seem s to lack it. Correction: The above file actually shows tti ligature. You can simply delete "i" to get the "tt" ligature.
Already fixed in the upcoming 7.5.x *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 66819 ***
