Hi all,

I think that the FreeBSD version of OO.org 2.0 has a strange bug in PDF
export. Generally speaking it works fine. However it cannot handle the
diacritic marks in the correct way, i.e. marks positioned by OpenType
GPOS script are not in the correct position. On the screen these marks
appear as they should be, but in the generated PDF both the base glyph
and the mark are shifted up or down. The Windows version does the job fine.
You can see the problem in the following files:

ftp://www.alt.u-szeged.hu/pub/OO.org/Test_Windows.pdf

Best wishes, Laci
