Description eric.savary 2003-04-10 14:36:29 UTC 
- Insert (in Calc, Writer), typographical characters from 0x2013 to 0x212E
(includs typog. quotes and the Euro sign...)
-> those signs won't be read by ZoomText though they get read in the "Insert -
Special characters" dialog
Comment 1 malte_timmermann 2003-07-16 15:30:03 UTC 
Not fixed in ZT8.02, seems that 'Speak all punctuation' doesn't work 
for this, only for eg. exclamation marks.
Comment 2 michael.bemmer 2003-12-12 11:45:12 UTC 
ZoomText will not fix them for OOo1.1. So we're retargeting them to 2.0.
Comment 3 michael.bemmer 2003-12-12 12:08:27 UTC 
Sorry for my last comment, which was nonsense. ZoomText will not fix them for
OOo2.0. So we're retargeting them to OOo later.
Comment 4 mdxonefour 2005-09-07 10:15:50 UTC 
re-targeted to OOo 3.0
Comment 5 mdxonefour 2005-09-29 11:04:36 UTC 
re-targeted to OOo 3.0
Comment 6 eric.savary 2005-09-29 14:58:05 UTC 
Last tested with ZT 9 + OOo m125
Comment 7 eric.savary 2006-09-25 08:53:32 UTC 
Still the same in ZT9.0.
Comment 8 mdxonefour 2006-10-16 11:24:54 UTC 
MD: re-targeting to 2.2 since it's an important a11y issue
Comment 9 pavel 2007-01-15 19:20:14 UTC 
Any updates?

Is there anyone working on this and similar issues at all?
Comment 10 pavel 2007-01-23 07:04:24 UTC 
md: you set the target to 2.2. Do you have someone to fix this issue?
Comment 11 mdxonefour 2007-01-23 07:27:43 UTC 
I set this issue to target 2.x. According to the evaluation, this issue needs to
be fixed within Zoomtext. I like to keep this issue open to be able to continue
to track it.
Comment 12 eric.savary 2007-09-06 12:50:56 UTC 
Removing "accessibility" keyword.
Comment 13 eric.savary 2007-09-06 12:53:12 UTC 
Adding "accessibility-external" keyword.
Comment 14 Martin Hollmichel 2008-01-28 02:44:48 UTC 
set target 3.x
Comment 15 eric.savary 2008-10-27 15:15:56 UTC 
Set priority to P4 for issues which cannot be fixed by the OOo team but need an
external solution.
Comment 16 malte_timmermann 2009-12-03 10:46:55 UTC 
ZoomText doesn't fix OOo issues anymore, closing this issue.
ZT supports need to be evaluated again when OOo has IA2 support.
Comment 17 malte_timmermann 2009-12-03 10:47:23 UTC 
Closed.
