Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 86760
Wrong vertical text of Fontwork
Last modified: 2017-05-20 10:47:44 UTC
Changing the direction of Fontwork text from top to bottom and rotating it 90 degrees clockwise create vertical Fontwork text, but some symbols created in this way are displayed incorrectly. When you change the direction of Fontwork text, all characters rotate 90 degrees respectively. However, some symbols like parenthesis should not rotate due to the special purpose of them. I think this is the problem of Fontwork rendering because vertical body text of Writer is shown correctly. I will attach the image that shows the difference of rendering vertical text. This problem also causes the incompatibility with WordArt provided by Microsoft Word. When you open a Word document which includes vertical WordArt, OpenOffice.org Writer shows a different result.
Created attachment 51924 [details] The difference between vertical body text and vertical Fontwork text
Same as in Drawing & Presentation, reassigned to this component.
Set to new and change the target.
I can reproduce the bug in src680m247. Compare the parentheses of a 'normal' vertical text and a vertical fontwork.
Reset assigne to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org".
