Version: (using KDE 3.5.9) OS: Linux Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages When using "letter-spacing" CSS attribute with text written in Indic script (*), text rendering is screwed up if there are "conjunct consonants" : letters are written several times and one over other, and conjuncts are broken. You can see an example of that on http://kramashah.blogspot.com/ in the framed title at the top. Rendering is correct in Firefox (in case you wonder how correct rendering looks). * : I only tested with Devanagari and Gujarati but I see no reason why other scripts - Bengali, Tibetan, Khmer, Gurmukhi, etc - wouldn't be affected as well
Actually the same problem happens with "matras" so I guess khtml uses wrong boundaries for letters. It must try to separate all unicode characters whereas some combinations can't be broken.
Still an issue using konqueror 4.2.90
Message from the Bugsquad and Konqueror teams: This bug is closed as outdated, as we do not have the manpower to maintain the KDE3 version anymore. If you still can reproduce this issue with Konqueror 4.8.4 or later, please open a new report. Thank you for your understanding.
