P: LrC 15.6 & later: Letters are rotated in book texts

This is reported as a follow-up to 

That bug was resolved in 15.5, but it is now back in slightly different form. Previously text was rotated 90 degrees more each line, now all lines are rotated 90 degrees.

[Reported this new issue in a released bug report, which may be the reason no reaction for over two weeks...]

Environment: WinARM machine (up to date w.r.t. Windows) using Lightroom Classic 15.6.

To reproduce, create a book in LrC 15.6 on a WinARM machine and add some text:

 

This applies to:

  • all books present (created in previous versions of LrC) in regular catalog as well newly created in 15.6
  • books created in a new 15.6 catalog

    Hi @Diederick van der Snoek,

    Thank you for reporting this again, and apologies for the delayed follow-up on your original thread.

    I understand how frustrating it must be to see a similar issue return after it was resolved in Lightroom Classic 15.5.

    Since you’ve already confirmed that the issue occurs in both existing and newly created catalogs on Windows ARM, there’s no need to repeat those tests.

    I’ll share your findings with the Lightroom Classic team to investigate whether this is a regression related to the previous fix or a separate issue introduced in 15.6.

    I’ll keep this new report open for tracking and follow up when we have more information.

    Thanks again for your patience and for documenting the behavior so clearly.

    Best,
    Anshul Saini
