Created attachment 80002 [details] LibO start up screen shot with indication of errors Problem description: When using the Japanese language interface LibO text displayed in menus etc are not correctl. Not correctly means either font is too small but readable or (most often) katakana characters are displayed only as small rectangles. Steps to reproduce: 1. open LibO 2. via options change UI to Japanese 3. restart LibO 4. problem is already to be seen on the start screen (see my attachement) Current behavior: As described above Expected behavior: Correct display of katakana characters Note: I checked various menus and it appears to me that only the katakana characters are wrongly displayed. However, it would be good to have a Japanese native speaker involved. If one is known, I am willing to work with him. I am living in Japan. In 3.6.6.2 I observed the same bug. Operating System: Windows XP Version: 4.0.3.3 release
As for my OS: XP Prof, Asian Language support package, SP3 I work always with English (US) UI and change only my languages. When writing Japanese I do not observe such errors. It is only in the LibO menus. Is it a font issue?
