View Full Version : Bugs in fbreader on 20090222 snapshot?

With .rtf files:

- when a paragraph is italic or bold in the original rtf, fbreader in snapshot 20090222 correctly displays the paragraph but also makes the following paragraph italic or bold

- page breaks are ignored

Should I open an OI ticket for this and/or a fbreader one?

I've noticed the same thing happens on the desktop version of FBReader, so it doesn't appear to be an OI issue. Have you tried using CoolReader instead of FBReader for your RTF files? It doesn't suffer from these "page-break" or "bold/italic" paragraphs issues.

Yes Coolreader doesn't have that problem, but there are other flaws in Coolreader, such as the terrible hyphenation, and also the font size I like is between two of the proposed font sizes on Coolreader.

Another problem I am having with fbreader is that it cuts lines at the ', as in let'
s do it

So should I submit a ticket on the OI website?

I wonder how difficult it would be to make these readers use an hyphenation dictionary instead of an algorithm? Would that be possible?

Yes, please open the tickets (one ticket per issue) and attach the files to reproduce the bugs.

Regarding hyphenation dictionary - no idea.

FBReader is using hyphenation dictionary.

FBReader is using hyphenation dictionary.

FBReader doesn't use a hyphenation dictionary but hyphenation patterns (one for each language), which is a set of of rules that describe how words can be hyphenated. Individual words are not stored.

Thanks for the clarification
