Description pavel 2003-11-06 16:33:05 UTC 
Hi,

the attached documents are displayed wrongly in Writer. Czech letter r with hook
is shown as o slash, e with hook is shown as e with ` etc.

Czech version contains hackish patch
ftp://ftp.linux.cz/pub/localization/OpenOffice.org/devel/1.1.0/build-6/build/Patches/OOo_1.1.0_source-fixes_for_word_6_and_95.diff
that fixes the encoding in normal text, but the encoding in text frames is still
wrong.

Reassigned to US
Comment 5 ulf.stroehler 2003-11-07 10:59:27 UTC 
First thought this was an issue dealing with encoded text. But the
bugdocs are (binary) MS winword files.
US->MRU: could you pls. have a look what makes some characters look so
strange. I don't think it is a font issue but as Pavel pointed out an
encoding issue in the import filter (?).
Pls. change target if not feasible for OOo 1.1.1. Thx.
Comment 6 michael.ruess 2003-11-10 15:39:33 UTC 
MRU->CMC: This document is WW6 format. Maybe this has been geberated
with a localized version of Word. when I create either a WW6 or
WW8/9/10 format doc with WordXP, OO Writer is able to import it correctly.

Comment 8 caolanm 2003-11-11 11:05:29 UTC 
This is a bit tentative, but works for this class of document,
recreating documents in ww6/7 format with later versions of word puts
the correct charset into each range of text, so it only occurs if that
doesn't happen and the language the document is written in is not a
western european I believe.

Fixed in portlaoisefilterteam16 for 2.0

Looks good with CWS portlaoisefilterteam16.
