            Bug ID: 90656
           Summary: Metadata in Word 6 imported with wrong encoding
           Product: LibreOffice

                OS: Linux (All)

Sample document, which is rendered incorrectly in LibreOffice

The metadata (document properties) of imported Word 6.0 documents seems to have
the wrong character encoding, rendering all non-ASCII characters as black
question mark character.

I’ll attach an example, a screenshot of how it looks in LibreOffice and one of
how it should look (i.e., how it looks in Word 6.0).

Basically, document title is shown using a field (placed in the header). It
should say: ‘Men takene mine får du aldri, svar på spørsmål’. But in
LibreOffice, it is rendered as ‘Men takene mine f�r du aldri, svar p�
sp�rsm�l’. The latter is also what is shown under ‘File → Properties’. So it
looks like it’s a problem with *importing* of Word 6.0 documents, not of
rendering fields.

The characters that are incorrectly rendered are the non-ASCII characters (å
and ø, both available in ISO 8859-1).

(The document also has other rendering bugs, but I’ll file separate bug reports
for this.)
