Confirmed. The PDF export is mishandling placement of the CJK Kanji in the horizontal text spans. They appear overstruck and otherwise mispositioned in the text spans, the Hirakana and Katakana did not appear affected only the Kanji glyphs. Did not notice the issue in the Print preview, only with an export to PDF and opening of the PDF in a viewer. Confirm it is was not present in a 7.4.7.2 release build, but does occur in a 7.5.0.3 release build. Just not clear the bibisect result of 1bf82b26aea3a403920a64cdfcb4671c947c7a01 [1] noted on Ask is the complete issue, as it was back ported to 7.4 [2] which correctly handles the mixed vertical and horizontal text spans in table cells. Another bibisect needed... =-ref-= [1] https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/138250 [2] https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/138278

They appear overstruck and otherwise mispositioned... Should have noted, that if I delete the initial table column of Vertical text, the export to PDF is no longer affected in the remaining table cell. Get good export from 24.8.0 back to 7.4.7

At 1bf82b26aea3a403920a64cdfcb4671c947c7a01 (build [5b1e33757b2f4bd329a59bcac9c97c5047b618d3] in linux-64-7.5), the table is in the left margin, off the page, which is a regression. That was then fixed by Mark with: 11ec622b8405dcaabc359e3d6e38c8a9142dad6b (build [c58330a3e3f5b3869cdbb66d310e10acf3ae9944] in linux-64-7.5) tdf#150642 fix table layout with vertical writing. At that stage, the issue is reproducible. So with the example document, I'm unsure how to bibisect that range.
