It's an LO Writer file in which I used AutoText and encountered this problem.
Problem description: When you use the AutoText feature, it changes your font to
Times New Roman.
Steps to reproduce:
1. .... Start a new document using a font other than the default Times New
Roman (or whatever you have set as the default). I usually use Courier New or
Ubuntu.
2. .... Type in some text you want to repeat often, such as the name of a
character in a play. In this example, let's use "Kelsey: "
3. .... Highlight Kelsey with the mouse.
4. .... Choose Edit ==> AutoText
5. .... The AutoText menu comes up. In the name field, type "Kelsey". The
shortcut field suggests "K". That's what we want.
6. .... From the AutoText button (on the far right) click on the down arrow and
choose New (text only).
7. .... Click on the Close button.
8. .... Delete anything that's in the document or open a new one.
9. .... Type K and then F3. AutoText puts in the name Kelsey. It may or may
not have already changed it to Times New Roman. If not, type some text, which
will be in Courier New or whatever font you originally chose. Hit enter down
to the next line and type another character's name, for example: "Bill."
10. .... Go through the same process to make an AutoText entry for Bill. Try
to type up a conversation between Kelsey and Bill in whatever font you chose.
At some point, the AutoText feature will change your font to Times New Roman
without your having chosen that font.
Current behavior: AutoText changes the font to Times New Roman without your
having chosen that.
Expected behavior: AutoText should put in the text and leave it in the font
that the user originally chose when creating the document.
I've encountered this problem while writing documents in English (USA) and in
French (France).
Operating System: Ubuntu
