Bug ID: 161795
Summary: Problem with form export to pdf when url includes
utf-8 2-byte characters
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
I tried to generate a form which is to be exported as pdf and send via email
(button) in the end.
But there's a problem with the URL field in the form settings, that prevents
the pdf readers from sending the form.
The problem is, that LibreOffice decodes the German "Umlaute" which have to be
encoded as utf-8 2-byte characters (e.g. %C3%BC (ü)) back to the character
(ü). This breaks the "mailto:"-protocol.
Is there a way to supress the decoding with any setting in the LibreOffice
configuration.
Best regards,
Sven
Steps to Reproduce:
1. enter an 2-byte utf-8 code like %C3%BC in the form properties url field
2. press tab/enter
Actual Results:
The Code is decoded to the related character
Expected Results:
The code should not be decoded.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
It would be OK also, if the character (e.g. ü) is exported as %C3%BC instead of
<C3><BC> when exporting to pdf.
