Hi,

I entered bug #37895 a couple of days ago. It has not been acknowledged
yet.

My bug report includes sample code to reproduce wrong behaviour on
Windows 2000.

Your statement that you are not aware of serious problems make me think
that I might be wrong. I would appreciate a very simple example using
StyledText with Arabic text or a comment of what is wrong in the test
case I attached to bug #3785.

Thanks for your reply.

Rodolfo
