Bug #: 51693
Summary: : [PATCH] Glyph substitutions of Chinese characters
seldom work in Linux without Freetype
Classification: Unclassified
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 3.3.0 Beta2
Platform: Other
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Status Whiteboard: BSA
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Libreoffice
AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
ReportedBy: lubo.rintel at gooddata.com
Problem description:
On a stock RHEL (6) installation, when OpenOffice.org runs in headless mode
(effectively disabling fontconfig), Chinese characters included in Latin texts
don't get replaced with UMing family glyphs (which is the Chinese font of
choice in RHEL and other Linux distributions).
Situation seemed to improve in a later LibreOffice commit that added some UMing
substitution, but that was not quite sufficient (did not work in spreadsheet
with zh-cn characters) for me.
I'm including the patches with changes I've done to make things work for me
with some guesswork and attempts to be consistent across Chinese variants.
