Sample Writer file using several fonts; MS Mincho, Liberation Sans, Hiragino Gothic,  IPA P Gothic

Under OS X environment (I use Yosemite), poorman's bold feature (e.g., render text as bold when the bold attribute was specified even if the font itself doesn't support bold) doesn't work in Writer and Impress (Calc seems well for me).

I got a good result with a file I attached under Windows, or Ubuntu Vivid.


Steps to reproduce:
* Install IPA P Gothic font in an OS X environment
http://ipafont.ipa.go.jp/ipafont/download.html
(This is a widely used free-licenced font in Japanese)
* Create a new document in Writer
* Select "IPA P Gothic" font
* Type some Japanese text
* Select the text mentioned above, then apply "bold" (with Cmd-B or click icon in toolbar)

Expected result:
=> The text is changed as bold face

Current result:
=> Nothing happens.

Note: With Hiragino Gothic (OS X built-in font, which supports bold), it works fine.
See attached files.

In addition:
I tried 5.0.0.0 beta1 and 4.4.3.2 and get same results.
A Japanese reporter said it works well with 4.3.2.2.

Ogasawara-san, could you try LibO 5.0.1 to see if it still reproduces or not?

Sorry for later response.  As Alex mentioned, this issue itself seems already fixed.  I change the status.

Anyway poorman's bold feature under OS X still have an issue, but it should be filed another one.  I did: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101854
