Font support

[Bill & Janet Washington <wa...@optusnet.com.au>]

Hi Folks,

     I frequently print out some Persian (Farsi) 
documents for some Persian friends, but Open 
Office often does not play nice with the Farsi 
font which is written right to left.

when I cut and paste the text into a Writer page 
some text displays correctly, some displays as 
blocks and some runs off the page.

Sometimes I can get the blocks to display 
correctly by adding carriage returns or spaces,

For example try cutting and pasting a block of 
text from this web page:

https://www.bible.com/bible/118/JHN.1.nmv

to a Writer Document.

This occurs with Open Office 4.1.5

When I cut and paste the same text into Word it 
displays correctly - The only Font package 
installed is "English"

Is it possible to correct this anomaly?

Best Regards

Bill Washington
