Known Issues

PDF output shows all text as ####

On Linux platforms you can face with this issue. For the getting around for the issue you need to install Microsoft Core Fonts to your platform. How to install [microsoft-core-fonts]

Mac QWERTY Keyboard Bug

There is a bug in JavaFX which makes all keyboards on a Mac behave as "QWERTY". This means, that on a German "QWERTZ" layout the shortcuts for undo and redo are swapped.

Text Artifacts (Rainbowing) on Text

If you are being distracted by rainbow text artifacts on text, you can work around the issue by passing some VM options in [Install_Dir]/AsciidocFX.vmoptions, as shared in this RichTextFX bug.

  1. Open AsciidocFX.vmoptions.

  2. Add -Dprism.text=t2k and -Dprism.lcdtext=false to the file.
