State of CJK issues in LibreOffice, 2026 edition: Kinsoku Shori, Rules and Reality - Shinji Enoki
2026-09-11 17:00 - 17:30 UTC | Track Room 1
This talk continues my "State of CJK issues" series. Last year I covered Gaiji (special user-defined characters). This year has two parts.

Part 1 looks closely at Japanese line-breaking rules. Certain characters cannot start or end a line. Past talks only showed what happens when you switch a setting on or off. This time, I explain why the rules work that way. I use JLREQ, a W3C document that ODF itself refers to. Then I check how closely LibreOffice follows it.

Part 2 gives a broader update on CJK bugs. I show a few bugs fixed this past year, and a few still open. All of them come from tdf#83066, the main CJK bug tracker on Bugzilla.
