Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 97279
PDF export: font used for hyphen is different from rest
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:17:59 UTC
This is a bit of an esoteric bug: I changed the default fonts for a document, and I exported it as PDF/A. Viewing the list of fonts, I always found a font that I did not use (AlbanyAMT). With the help of Adobe Acrobat I could locate where the specific font is used: It's used for hyphens! See attachment. So I guess it's a bug that a different font is used for hyphens than for the rest of the document.

Please provide a sample as odt file, Thanks.

@hdu: does hyphenation use a specific font?
Writer emitted an U+00AD ("soft hyphen") for the hyphen in the PDF and the original font selected did not support that code point. Albany comes to the rescue and provides it. @od: why are you guys emitting a U+00AD ("soft hyphen") when you want a U+002D ("hyphen-minus")?
