Created attachment 55167 [details] copy-pasted from site on Arabian I have copy-pasted part of site on arabian into Writer. And see blank squares instead of letters. IMHO it it regression, because in LibO 3.3.4 on the same comp it looks correctly. reproduced on LibO 3.5.0 beta 1 on Fedora 64 bit
File looks fine in LibO 3.5.0 beta2 on Ubuntu.
Looks fine with LO-3.5.0-beta2 on SLED11-SP1. Sasha, could you please provide output from the following command? fc-match Mangal I do not have the "Mangal" font installed here. Also, the fallback is not defined in VCL.xcu, see http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/officecfg/registry/data/org/openoffice/VCL.xcu?h=libreoffice-3-5 => I guess that the fallback font is suggested by fontconfig. It evidently provides good fallback here.
[s@t2 program]$ fc-match Mangal DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book" >I do not have the "Mangal" Change font to Lohit Kannada, or another Lohit. On my comp in LibO 3.3.4 displays correctly with Lohit. But in LibO 3.5.0 only squares.
It is really strange. I am not able to reproduce it. It displays here fine even with "Dejavu Sans" font. I use 3.5.0-beta2-x86_64 on SLED11-SP1-x86_64. Just to be sure. I understand that you did the following steps: 1. open on-arabian.odt 2. select the first line: بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم 3. select the font "Lohit Kanada" in the toolbar Result with LO-3.3.4: shows correctly Result with LO-3.5.0-beta1: squares instead of the Arabic letters Expected result: shows Arabic letters even in LO-.3.5.0 Am I right? Also, could you please attach a screenshot that shows the squares?
Created attachment 55199 [details] I have selected all text and changed to Lohit Kannada
It is really strange. It looks fine with the Lohit Canada font here. Caolan, I think that you worked on the font stuff. Do you have any idea what is going on the Sasha's Fedora system?
works fine for me as well, sounds a bit like bug 44078, but I can't reproduce that one either, and Lior says this one works for him. I suspect some similar problem, perhaps triggered by the upgraded internal DejaVu fonts. I wonder if closing LibreOffice, rm -rf /opt/lodev3.5/share/fonts/truetype/DejaVu*, and then restart LibreOffice makes a difference ?
caolanm->sasha: a) what version of fedora is this ? b) what desktop environment, gnome2, gnome3, kde, xfce ? c) can you attach the output of... fc-list -v > /tmp/big.font.list.txt to this bug, that might allow me to match my installed fonts to your ones
when I deleted /opt/lodev3.5/share/fonts/truetype, all becomes fine. Thanks! a) IMHO Fedora 15,upgraded until now b) KDE 4.6.5

great, and last piece of information that might help, output of... locale

thanks sasha. I can reproduce this now.
