Created attachment 34227 [details] Investigations on VCL.xcu of the revision 1.50. Created attachment 34228 [details]
A Perl script running as "perl convert_VCL_xcu.pl VCL.xcu" will produce VCL_xcu.ods for investigation.
For investigation of the file VCL.xcu, the following command perl convert_VCL_xcu.pl officecfg/registry/data/org/openoffice/VCL.xcu will produce VCL_xcu.ods including several sheets: summary and individual sheets of each language. Just information. The Perl script has found that: the entry "CJK_HEADING" of "zh-hk" has duplicated elements of <value>. the entry "CJK_HEADING" of "zh-sq" has duplicated elements of <value>. tora: the entries that are not present in a locale are inherited from english (which is our last fallback for searching). en locale has all default font entries used in vcl. As to whether the localized fontnames precede the english ones in font selection, i think hdu knows better than me. Any spelling corrections for these entries are very welcome, thank you. > 6. Are both English and localized font names needed to be listed?

One of the font name alternatives should suffice. Having the english names
doesn't make much difference. It just makes it easier for non-native speakers to
maintaining the list.
The spelling fixes from Latin "MS P*" font names to their full width counterparts were applied in CWS vclxcu01. Please check revision 1.50.22.3 of VCL.xcu. HDU->ES: please verify in CWS vclxcu01 . . Quick'n dirty notes 4 me: iconv -f UTF8 -t UTF16 -o VCLutf16 VCL.xcu hexdump VCLutf16 > VCLhex cat VCLhex | cut -d " " -f 2-8 > VCLhex.noadd Postive testing: cat VCLhex.noadd | grep "ff33 3000" cat VCLhex.noadd | grep "ff2d 3000" ->matches Negative testing: cat VCLhex.noadd | grep "ff33 0020" cat VCLhex.noadd | grep "ff2d 0020" ->no match Verified in CWS vclxcu01 Ok in src680m168 In reality, fullwidth characters of MS are followed by a halfwidth space letter. Correct font names begin with: FF2D;FULLWIDTH LATIN CAPITAL LETTER M;Lu;0;L;<wide> 004D;;;;N;;;;FF4D; FF33;FULLWIDTH LATIN CAPITAL LETTER S;Lu;0;L;<wide> 0053;;;;N;;;;FF53; 0020;SPACE;Zs;0;WS;;;;;N;;;;; I apologize for not confirming the fix at the time. ES->HDU: PLease, have a look. set new target. Problem: There are some misspellings in the file VCL.xcu regarding a set of 4 Japanese primary MS fonts whose name begins with a sequence of fullwidth letter M and S. Impact: Leaving the misspellings untouched results in failure of choosing a default font name of the applications - Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw - on Windows. Each application mistakenly chooses the first one - default font name for Solaris - from the list of possible default font names defined in the file VCL.xcu since the application on Windows cannot find an appropriate font name due to the misspellings. Consequently, the interoperability with other applications on Windows is broken. Creating a document from the scratch with OpenOffice.org on Windows and saving it in Microsoft Office file format, and opening it with Microsoft Office results in different text layout. Microsoft Office cannot find the font name for Solaris specified in the original document and then uses its own default font, instead. Patch: Here is a procedure to correct misspellings regarding a set of 4 Japanese MS fonts in the file VCL.xcu revision 1.54. To correct them, substitute a sequence of fullwidth letter M, S, and ideograph space with a sequence of fullwidth letter M, S, and normal space by the following command: perl -i.bak -pe 's/(\xef\xbc\xad)(\xef\xbc\xb3)(\xe3\x80\x80)/$1$2 /g' VCL.xcu Information 1: For the previous release, 2.0.3, Japanese community has provided Japanese users with a corrected file VCL,xcu and an installer that easily installs the file into user's installation set of OpenOffice.org 2.0.3. Information 2: Microsoft Windows variants Japanese comes with a font "MS UI Gothic" as a UI font, which is one of the three fonts collected in the font file MSGOTHIC.TTC. Our file VCL.xcu, however, currently does not use the font for UI. It is not a big deal, but the font MS UI Gothic is used by other Windows applications as a default UI font and is slightly thiner than MS PGothic, our current one, and saves room for smaller resolution of display device. That could be taken of in the near future. Created attachment 39065 [details] A patch against the revision 1.54 Created attachment 39066 [details]
A patch-applied file
Thanks a lot for updating the patch! Applied in CWS vclxcu02. Thanks a lot for the integration. HDU: I was wondering if the fix you had already made would be incorporated
into 2.0.4rcX in time for the final release.
I'm afraid the 2.0.4RC are closed for anything but the most serious regressions. set keyword, to get more attention on the issue for 2.1 @es: please verify in CWS vclxcu02 using a japanese locale @tora: please check the latest VCL.xcu in http://util.openoffice.org/source/browse/util/officecfg/registry/data/org/openoffice/VCL.xcu?only_with_tag=cws_src680_vclxcu02 hdu: Checked with some command line tools, it looks fine.
Additionally I am going to check it with Windows, Solaris, and Linux.
The fix has been confirmed with: - Windows 2000, OOo 2.0.4rc3 Japanese The fixed VCL.xcu makes good effects, as expected. - Solaris 10, OOo 2.0.4rc3 Japanese No effect is found, which is an expected behavior. - Fedora Core 5, OOo 2.0.1 Japanese The fixed VCL.xcu changes the default font name of Calc, Impress, and Draw from font A- to font A+. The fix has to have no effect on any platform but Windows. The phenomenon, however, has no problem on this issue. I will file another issue on that. In the list of VCL.xcu, the font A+ is listed prior to font X. Their spells encoded in UTF-8 are correct. A font file for font A+ is not installed on the system while a font file for font X is installed here: /usr/share/fonts/japanese/TrueType/kochi-gothic-subst.ttf and listed in the font list of OOo's user interface. The default font should be font X instead of font A+ under the circumstances. A-: "MS P ゴシック" - misspell made long long ago. A+: "ï¼ï¼³ Ｐゴシック" aka "MS PGothic" X: "æ±é¢¨ã‚´ã‚·ãƒƒã‚¯" aka "Kochi Gothic" In conclusion, the fixed VCL.xcu has been verified with Japanese environment. Thanks a lot. Hi Tora! Thanx a lot for submitteing an verifying this issue. Let's bring this work to the end ;) I reassign to you. Please flag as VERIFIED and be kind to reverify (and close) it when it will be integrated in the master. Thank you! Verified as described above. i will check it again with an integrated build. Vielen Dank! Verified with OOo_2.1.0rc2_20061130_Win32Intel_install_ja_wJRE.exe Closing... |
