Description muthu 2015-07-20 12:45:51 UTC
1. Type something in Tamil.  Eg. திட்டமிடல்  என்றால்  என்ன?
2. Select the text and make it Bold.  

Expected: Space between the words should be maintained
Actual: Space between the words are removed.

Not reproduced.
I could only see the glyphs on Linux, so I can't be sure about Windows.

Example document

I can reproduce this in Windows 7, LO 5.1.3.2.
Copied the example text in a document using different font sizes, both normal and bold. If font size is small, the spacing can completely disappear in some cases.

LO master build (039b75d6cdc26dcce03e37c67115405e6f2a8ebe) gives assertion failed: -1 != nCharPos, line 2361, vcl/win/gdi/winlayout.cxx

Spacing looks fine in Linux, LO 5.1.3.2.

Comment 4 Aron Budea 2016-05-13 00:01:29 UTC
This appears to be a regression, not reproducible in 3.6.0.4, but appears in 4.0.0.3.
Comment 5 Xisco Faulí 2016-09-13 11:27:37 UTC
Adding keyword 'preBisect' as this regression was introduced before branch 4.4 and therefore it can't be bibisected as there's no bibisect repository for this branch.

Comment 8 Aron Budea 2021-08-13 22:39:28 UTC
This is fine for me now in a recent 7.3 daily build, actually since 5.3.0.3, probably since the unified font rendering.
