Bug#591615: openoffice.org: Malayalam Rendering Issues



Package: openoffice.org
Version: 1:3.2.1-5
Severity: normal


There is a problem rendering some glyphs  of Malayalam language.

Glyph reordering and substitution  with some (not all) glyphs is 
not happening.

This is a fresh install of 32 bit OO.o; I used to have a 64 bit
OO.o till 10 days back, this problem was not there. I am nut
sure if some thing has changed in 10 days. 

I assume ttf-malayalam-fonts are installed. 

I am attaching a sample html file, and the difference
would be  apparent if the text is viewd in both iceweasel 
or iceape (prefered - not sure how it renders in other
browsers - certainly will not render properly in text only
browsers) and any of OO.o components. 

See the screenshot attached. On left is the html rendered in
iceape - correct rendering; and right side is the rendering 
in OO.o word. (wrong rendering). 

The problem is existing in at least spreadsheet too.

Have not checked other components. 

Problem seems to be with icu or whatever equivalent of pango used by
OO.o for text rendering / layout.
