Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 64982
OpenOffice Rendering problem
Last modified: 2013-02-07 21:49:15 UTC
I don't know what rendering engine OpenOffice uses. I think it uses it's own in both Windows, Linux and OSX. But I found some things are not working according to http://www.unicode.org/review/pr-37.pdf I agree that there are lots of wrong informations in http://www.unicode.org/faq/indic.html but it's our responsibility to follow the right information for making the product work well. Thanks Omi
Omi, could you attach a screenshot showing expected and actual rendering ?
:) The developers should notice all the things na? Any ways. For example if you want to type Ra-Yaphala, according to http://www.unicode.org/faq/indic.html it should be Ra + ZWNJ + Halanth + Ya, which is discarded in http://www.unicode.org/review/pr-37.pdf and it became Ra + ZWJ + Halanth + Ya Yesterday I found OOo (Win32) still follows Ra + ZWNJ + Halanth + Ya, which should be corrected by Ra + ZWJ + Halanth + Ya Please check the PDF file first. Thanks
Thanks for the explanation Omi. The developers and others would always welcome screenshots since they make comprehending problems easier. :)
Well, I think this bug doesn't need any screenshot to be understand. The explanation is very clear. If I supply the Images, Non-Bengali developers has to work more to find out what letters I used to produce the Image. Still if you want it, let me know. I can produce and attach it. :)
