Korean font is mismatched
DaeHyun: thought you might be interested in this one since it concerns Korean UI. Can you please also include a screenshot of what the font looks like elsewhere on Windows, for comparison? Thank you! In my opinion, LibreOffice on Windows can't read the current Windows Korean version's default font "맑은 고딕(English Name: Malgun Gothic)". "맑은 고딕(English Name: Malgun Gothic)" font has been introduced and applied since Windows Vista. (In reply to baesoft777 from comment #1) > Created attachment 189272 [details] > Korean font is mismatched Because the former Windows Korean font is "Gulim". The screenshot's default font use "Gulim" font. So, LibreOffice Korean users, need to set "Malgun Gothic" for Windows users. (ps. Mac OS's Korean default font is "Apple SD Gothic Neo". In my opinion, https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+/refs/heads/master/officecfg/registry/data/org/openoffice/VCL.xcu#427 In my opinion, SANS_UNICODE's font prioritization should be changed.

In my opinion, LibreOffice's Korean font rendering looks like 'bolded' gulim font.

The font lists like SANS_UNICODE can be changed by the user, via expert configuration. As you are the Korean expert here, I suggest you just tweak with the list and find the correct font name(s). Maybe also try the CJK_DISPLAY and UI_SANS lists. And as the bug reporter was using an English locale, you may also want to change the font lists for "en" setting.

I changed some Korean font list priority such as "SANS_UNICODE" on VCL.xcu https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+/refs/heads/master/officecfg/registry/data/org/openoffice/VCL.xcu#427 After modified the VCL.xcu, I can show LibreOffice UI and tooltip with appropriate Korean font on Windows. I submitted the fixed source code https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/157494 . I checked it on Windows, Mac M1, Linux. Please, check & review it. |
