What happens if you re-format the characters to another font? Please comment. Please attatch one file of each type (.doc, .xls, .ppt - or zip them together first) and reassign it to mru@openoffice.org. Tesekür ederim. Created attachment 945 [details]
3 documents -xls,ppt,doc- having turkish chars and apostrophes
With Open Office 641b, I'm able to open Microsoft Word files including turkish characters with apparently no problems, but by only re-formatting those chars with Times and New Century Schoolbook. A friend of me was able to use additional Arial and Times new roman, so it looks like it's not an issue with ooo itself, and rather with fonts ooo includes by default. Additionally, a word/excel/ppt document containing apostrophes cannot be properly handled. Instead, a question mark appears (in all fonts _except_ Charter, courier and utopia). SO this looks like a font issue, too. Does OOO system accept proper Turkish font patches for upcoming releases? This only occurs with OpenOffice. It seems that the font substitution does not work correctly. When I manually set the Font replacement (in the Options) for Times New Roman to Times, everthing is displayed fine. No problem here with OOo 1.0 it renders all my Turkish fonts good enough. I have all m$ webfonts (http://typography.micro$oft.com) packages. Created attachment 1587 [details]
Rendering of sample.doc with Turkish fonts
This bug should be closed. It's definitely fixed. Thanks, Ismail. closed |
