I can confirm this bug with version 2.4.1-11ubuntu2 on Intrepid and also with
2.4.1-11 on Debian Lenny.
Horizontal CJK text displays fine, but vertical text is invisible, no matter
which CJK font you use.
One interesting find: if the font in question contains embedded bitmaps and the
selected font size results to use the bitmaps instead of the spline data, then
the bitmaps are displayed in the Debian Lenny version, but not in the Intrepid
version. As soon as the font size in increased, so that the splines are used to
render the font, the text becomes invisible. Fonts, which don't contain
embedded bitmaps are always invisible.
My guess is, that it's a rendering bug in openoffice.org, but that maybe
fontconfig is involved. Maybe it's a miscommunication between the two.
I will try to rebuild the openoffice suite locally with different
patches removed to see if our fontconfig version has something to do
with it.
@Chris: if you want to test with CJK fonts, you can install the
language-support-fonts-{zh|ja|ko} package(s). That should give you the
necessary fonts to test the document.
