|
|
Hello people.
For some reason the symbols are not showing in my formulas, only the numbers and variables.
Although some do get displayed (squareroot for one), even the basic symbols (plus, minus, equal) doesn't display.
Only when I print to a postscript file. Then it shows up in the postscript file.
If I embed a formula in oodraw and export the selection to a picture format, the symbols are also missing. There are only spaces.
Maybe this is some font problem, but I don't know.
I'm using OpenOffice 1.0.1 on a Gentoo System. |

| You might try changing the default font. It sounds to me like a font problem. |

Sorry to sound stupid here. but where do one change this default font?
Is this a global OO setting or local to oomath?
I've changed all the fonts inside oomath to something I have (I don't have thorndale) but the symbols still do not show  |

I had the same problem when I installed OOo-1.1b on WinXP.
In my case, vector dot products was invisible both on the screen and printing.
| Code: |
vec C = vec A cdot vec B
|
After a long struggle, I finally found that the default (OOo)/share/fonts/truetype/open___.ttf
is different in size between the two releases of OOo.
I replaced the open___.ttf (OpenSymbols) file with the larger one, from the
earlier version of OOo; then all special characters are visible now.
I hope this works for you too, though I'm not sure even now  |

| I found when I open the opensymble.ttf the fonts in it can show correctly, I think this font files is the reason why the symbols couldn't show correxctly, so OO develop group should modify this font file. |
