            Bug ID: 138277
           Summary: Typo Ascender / Win Ascent / font Metrics
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.7.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: ashwini.aggarwal at gmail.com

Description:
When we open a file in LibreOffice Writer 6.4.7.2, it uses the "Win Ascent"
parameter of a font, rather than "Typo Ascender". This chops off diacritics in
our font. Sanskrit2020.otf
https://sourceforge.net/projects/advaita-sharada-font/files/Devanagari/

When we export as pdf, it saves correctly, the diacritics are visible.
See also  "Activity log for bug 55469: Different line spacing across
platforms".

This issue is not present in Microsoft Word 2019. Using "Add space before
paragraph" the text with diacritics is clearly rendered.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.select font Sanskrit2020
2.insert unicode character $0905 
3.insert unicode character $A8E2

Actual Results:
character $A8E2 is chopped off as seen in attached jpg.

Expected Results:
character $A8E2 should be clearly visible, as seen in attached pdf.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes


OpenGL enabled: Yes

Additional Info:
The character $A8E2 should be clearly visible above the character $0905.
