------- Additional comments from [email protected] Fri Aug 27 14:34:21 +0000 2010 ------- There are a number of bug reports about this, with the workaround of going to Tools->Options->Language Settings->Complex Text Layout->Numerals, and selecting Context. It doesn't seem to have been fixed though. Every time I upgrade, it goes wrong again, and I have to remember just where this setting is. I recently upgraded from 3.1.0, OOO310m11 (Build:9399), to OOo-dev 3.3.0 OOO330m3 (Build: 9519), opened a recent document which used to show the numerals just fine, and now they're converted to what I call Arabic but maybe more correctly "Eastern Arabic" (٠.١.٢.٣.٤.٥.٦.٧.٨.٩). (To me Hindi numerals are the Devanagari characters (०.१.२.३.४.५.६.७.८.९)). Cutting and pasting the Eastern Arabic numerals gives the Western 0-9. Even opening a new document defaults to this, so it's not about incorrectly importing settings. This has to be wrong, and will surely put off any new users. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
