           Summary: Import of MathML into OpenOffice / LibreOffice
    Classification: Unclassified

           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Formula Editor
        AssignedTo: [email protected]

zip archive with test files to reproduce the bug

This bug report is intended to remind the development team of a long standing
bug in OpenOffice which is still present in LibreOffice (tested with LO 3.5.1).
It is reported in the OO tracker at
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=69088

The tex4ht software converts LaTeX documents into OpenOffice/LibreOffice format
(.odt). Equations are converted to MathML. The MathML generated by tex4ht is
valid but the import to OO and LO is broken in at least two points:

1. Multiple indices are not correctly grouped, when imported from MML.

2. An array (e.g. a LaTeX eqnarray environment) is represented in LO math as
matrix. In a matrix, columns are separated by "#" and rows by "##". If a column
consists of an equal sign "#=#" only, this has to be escaped like this
"#{}={}#", otherwise it is displayed as "?". 
But when the equation is imported from MathML, the equal sign is NOT escaped.
Note that in MathML the equal sign must not be escaped.

The attached zip file contains 
- the LaTeX source file
- the .odt file exhibiting the bugs,
- the pdf file produced by LaTeX
