Description George Yohng 2015-12-12 23:41:06 UTC
Converting text with spaces to curves results on very thin vertically stretched characters on Mac OS X. I think, this is specific to this OS and probably not reproducible on other platforms.

To reproduce: Launch draw, enter some text that contains several words like "Hello, this is me!". Select, right click, Convert to Curves, watch the result.

The same thing happens in the background when exporting to EPS.

The latest Apache OpenOffice does not have this problem, so I understand the bug is somewhere in the non-shared part of the source code.

Comment 4 George Yohng 2017-01-03 20:03:55 UTC
Sorry, just read that you didn't want me to change the version number, so I flipped it back. The previous version on the bug was 5.0.3.2, in the version 5.2.4.2 the bug still exists without any change in behaviour. MacOSX Sierra, but probably any version (as it was tested one year before with an older OSX).
