Created attachment 10523 [details] Overlapping Text and Text crossing the border. The text is overlapping and crossing borders. It makes it difficult to read and understand. Also, when printing, the text would overlap.
There are many more pages with the same problem. When clicked on the links in http://te.wikisource.org/wiki/Main_Page Same kind of bug in http://te.wikisource.org/wiki/%E0%B0%B8%E0%B0%BE%E0%B0%95%E0%B1%8D%E0%B0%B7%E0%B0%BF_%E0%B0%B8%E0%B0%82%E0%B0%98%E0%B0%A8%E0%B0%BF%E0%B0%B0%E0%B1%8D%E0%B0%AE%E0%B0%BE%E0%B0%A3%E0%B0%AE%E0%B1%81
Created attachment 10529 [details] What it looks like for me Could you attach a screenshot of what you're talking about? It looks fine on mine computer.
I think it's that first line of preformatted text. Depending on your browser width and font size, that could easily scroll off the side of the page.
Created attachment 10530 [details] Screenshot of the wikipedia page showing the overlapped text. If the purpose of the page is to display the text so that the user can easily read it without any manual readjustment of the page, then the page does not fulfill the purpose.
Created attachment 10533 [details] my ff, your chrome, my chromium This appears to be a problem with the version of Chrome that you're using. The nightly version of firefox doesn't show this problem, but I do see a bit of it in my version of Chromium. Screenshot attached has my FF (version 13) in the top third, then your screenshot in the middle, and my chromium ("18.0.1025.151 (Developer Build 130497) Ubuntu 12.04" from chrome://version). I see a tiny amount of the problem in Chromium, but none in FF.
Created attachment 10683 [details] Lohit Telugu Eating up spaces. I can hardly see a space
Created attachment 10684 [details] System font on Telugu Wikisource System font is much better
Overlapping was seen on some WebFonts. Mostly could be issue with Lohit. Adding Santhosh. Arjuna/Veevan, Are the other 2 fonts better than Lohit-Telugu to be set as default.
There is no problem on Firefox on Ubuntu 10.04 (Latest Checked ver.12) Even on Firefox Lohit Telugu gives very less spacing for space, appearing as if there is no space particularly when the characters in front and after are complex characters. Other fonts do not seem to be any better. I am not sure whether the issue is beyond browser and part of rendering software like Pango. Chrome does not render Telugu Wiki properly (Version checked 5.0.375.126)
The width of space can be increased in the font, if it is very less. In 2009, this bug was reported against Lohit Telugu. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=531201 and status of that bug is 'closed'. Please reopen it if you think that the issue persists.
Anybody who still faces this problem: Please mention your browser, your browser version, and the operating system that you use. Thanks! As the "upstream" keyword was added here, I wonder which upstream it refers to. Some browser? (Cannot reproduce the problem with Firefox 16.0.1 on Fedora 16, no matter how much I zoom in or out on http://te.wikisource.org/ .)
Sirisha / Srikanth: Is this still an issue?
Moving to ULS.
Cannot reproduce with Google Chrome 27 on Fedora on http://te.wikisource.org/wiki/%E0%B0%B8%E0%B0%BE%E0%B0%95%E0%B1%8D%E0%B0%B7%E0%B0%BF_%E0%B0%B8%E0%B0%82%E0%B0%98%E0%B0%A8%E0%B0%BF%E0%B0%B0%E0%B1%8D%E0%B0%AE%E0%B0%BE%E0%B0%A3%E0%B0%AE%E0%B1%81 , looking at the brakets. I've tried also changing the font size but it still looks all correct to me. Proposing WORKSFORME.
No feedback => closing.
