Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 128266
Under/Overbrace at the wrong position
Last modified: 2020-01-19 12:21:47 UTC
Created attachment 86816 [details] Simple Example I am not sure but i think this problem occured after upgrading from Windows 7 to Windows 10. A simple underbrace command would be {3+5} underbrace 8 +4=12 The bracket occurs somewhere in the upper left of the formula, totally wrong positioned. Thanks for helping
Can you try to export it as PDF and see how it looks like? This issue seems to be present since Windows 8. My guess is that the wrong font (Segoe UI?) is used for screen rendering. But in PDF export OpenSymbol is used...
Confirmed with AOO 4.2.0 (dev) on Windows 10.

Hi Matthias, you are right. The *.pdf export shows the formula as it should be. Can i change the rendering font? And if, do i change something in oo or in windows. Do you mean the problem is solved in the 4.2.0. developer version or not. If it is solved where can i download it. Thanks for the quick response. Frank
I have not found a way to change the font. The issue is present in 4.2.0 (dev) as well. But you can always test my (highly unofficial) builds for Windows: https://home.apache.org/~mseidel/AOO-builds/

Libre Office has not this problem, maybe i will use this as long as it is not solved in oo. THX for your help!

This is a problem with OpenSymbol font. Replace it with the font proposed by martin_g: https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=67772

I think other problems in Impress are related: https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=127983
The mentioned fontchange also solved my problem.

Well it is open source, why don't you have a look? ;-) It seems, they based "their" font on the version 1.7 copyrighted by Sun Microsystems which can be found everywhere to download (although I doubt that it was ever free to use). However, we need to find someone who has knowledge in font design. Something changed with Window 8 upwards, that causes version 2.4.3 of OpenSymbol to be rejected and substituted by Segoe UI(?). But let's discuss that on dev@, please.
