Hi Buovjaga

Many thanks for your response.

This is interesting, but it only means that LibreOffice itself correctly
recognizes the word boundaries.

In my case, it's about the implementation of Opentypefonts (OTF) and here the
word boundaries are not recognized correctly.
Formats are interpreted here as word boundaries and the letters are replaced
incorrectly.

Explanation to the example file.

The two words Krokodil and Torpfosten should clarify this.

Related to Krokodil
In the first line without formatting, the letters are replaced correctly. The
transitions from "o" to the following letters are correct.
In the following three lines, individual letters are formatted (colored,
bolded, with character styles). The transitions from "o" to the following
letters are no longer correct.

The same applies to the second word (Torpfosten). Here are the transitions of
"r" and "o". Again, LO behaves as one would expect at a word boundary.

Although the otf-font was embedded in the odt file, I add a PDF from the same
file, if there are problems with the presentation.


I know that many never notice this behavior. In the school context, however,
the ability to mark parts within words is very important.

I hope I could clarify my request better.
