Warped font in right-hand outline frame

MacOS 10.7.5, LibreOffice 4.1.1.2: Many fonts appear vertically stretched in some (but not all) outline frames in Impress. This is not a duplicate of Bug 43009 though, as hardware acceleration is turned off; in fact the hardware acceleration checkbox is greyed out and cannot be checked.

Can you please add a sample document which you can reproduce this behavior with?

Thanks,
Joren

What I see is rather squashed text. It's too narrow and instead of stretched looks squashed: http://cl.ly/image/1c440C3G133O

So basically whatever the case, something is wrong. Setting this bug to NEW.

Looks like the condensed variant is used rather than the regular variant.

@jochenweile: Could you please go to Format->Character... and tell us which style is selected for that text?
Comment 6 jochenweile 2013-11-21 21:34:58 UTC
It seems to be set to "Condensed Medium" by default. But changing it to "Regular" doesn't seem to have any effect.
Comment 7 jochenweile 2013-12-16 23:55:30 UTC
I found a work-around: Changing the height of the textbox such that the lower border directly touches the bottom of the text causes the text to be re-drawn correctly. It's still quite annoying though having to precisely re-size all my text boxes.

Is this OS X -only? I don't see any problem.

Link in comment 4 is dead, but newest version looks fine for me, neither stretched or squashed.

Checked against a 4.3 version that looked squashed, so setting this as resolved
