Please attach such example document itself, not only images. For people in Europa it is hard to produce Japanese text.

Sorry.
This is problem during Japanese input and cannot be provided as documentation.

I see. The screenshot uses LibreOffice on Ubuntu. Is it possible for you to test whether the error also occurs with another operating system?

@Franklin: Could you please try to reproduce the problem? Or do you know someone else who can test Japanese input?

I could not reproduce it in my box:

When I changed the Japanese input from "Microsoft IME" to "Google IME", it became horizontal writing like ubuntu(iBus-Mozc).

It seems to be a problem peculiar to "Microsoft IME".
