Editing a pptx file created in MS Office (01.pptx) using Libreoffice 5.1.1.2 on
Linux Mint Cinnamon makes Hebrew text be recognized as English and brakes
Hebrew text when the pptx is reopened in MS Office.
In the attached 01.png, showing a screenshot of the original file opened in MS
Office 2010 version 14.0.7166.5000 32bit, you can see that:
1. The boxed text is recognized as Hebrew.
2. The text is RTL and aligned to the right.
In the attached 02.png the pptx file is opened in LO and you can see that:
1. LO recognizes the text as English, so every word is seen as a typo (If I
right click a word I get the option "word is Hebrew" which makes LO recognize
the word as Hebrew).
2. For some reason, although the text appears to be RTL and aligned to the
right, the Paragraph settings indicate it's LTR and aligned to the left.
* Another minor bug here: The fonts used in the original pptx are Times New
Roman and Arial, both fonts I have installed on my Linux Mint system, yet LO
assigned different fonts to the text...
In the attached 03.png the pptx is reopened in MS Office 2010 version
14.0.7166.5000 32bit after being saved (without further changes) in LO, and you
can see that:
1. The language of the text is recognized as English.
2. The text is RTL and aligned to the right.
3. As part of being recognized as English, the punctuation marks "stick to the
left" as if they are in English and not to the right as they should in Hebrew.
The pptx file that was saved in LO is attached as 02.pptx
This bug makes editing Hebrew pptx files on LO impossible.
