           Summary: Writer crashes on entering unicode characters not

Hello,

I recently had "some" crashes with Writer (just the program, latest version) as
I entered some Unicode text/characters (with no delay - no chance to save).

[System]
AMD Phenom II X4 840, 3.2GHz, 8 GB RAM
Windows 7 Prof. x64
AOO 4.0.0

Meanwhile I found that the trouble lies in entering (key stroke/paste)
characters - in my case Cyrillic and Arabian ones - which are not
included/supported by the currently selected font. This also happens when I
change the font to one that does not have this/these characters. 
On the other hand there's no trouble with characters that are beyond the
ASCII/ANSI character set (256++) but which are included in the selected font
(e.g. Turkish, French).
Generally, I can't experience failures with fonts that support/include those
characters (e.g. "Arial Unicode MS").

I thought this might be a serious and noteworthy problem. 
Please excuse when it already has been posted - I'm brand new in here.

Jens
