Summary0014612: use {lfbd} and {rtbd} OpenType tables to perform optical margin adjustments
DescriptionThe font “Linux Libertine O” (*.otf) does have {lfbd} (left bounds) and {rtbd} (right bounds) lookup tables. However, scribus doesn't seem to use them while realizing the optical margin feature.
Only punctuation like “-” (hyphen), “.” (dot) and “,” (comma) do stick out the text frame (on the right side), even though they're not defined in the tables.
