ODT document with a comment
In a specific situation, non-ASCII characters in comments are corrupt when an
RTF document is reopened. This only seems to occur on Linux after an RTF
document has been modified and then saved. If there are non-ASCII characters in
the actual content of the document, these are not affected.
Found with LibO 4.3.3.2 (from Debian Jessie repository), 4.4.5.2 (from Debian
backports) and 5.0.1.2 (downloaded directly from the LibO site). The issue does
not emerge with any version of LibO on Windows 7. Perhaps there is something
that goes wrong with UTF-8 (UTF-16 is used internally in Windows).
(I actually found the bug a few months ago, but I didn't report it back then,
because it already seemed fixed in LibO 5.0.0.0.beta1. However, it now affects
5.0.0.5 as well on Linux.)
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the attached ODT document. There is some text (in Finnish) that is
repeated in a comment.
2. Save the document as RTF. (You can at this point close the document and
reopen it, and everything seems fine.)
3. Make a change in the document, save it again as RTF and close it.
4. When the RTF is now reopened, the non-ASCII characters in the comment are
corrupt. They have mostly been turned into question marks, but typographical
quotation marks have been turned into a combination of a square and a letter.
