Bug ID: 124588
Summary: FILEOPEN DOC DOCX RTF: U+00AD should not be treated as
soft hyphen in Word documents
Product: LibreOffice
Version: Inherited From OOo
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Word treats U+00AD as a normal character and there are actual fonts that have a
non-hyphen glyph mapped to this codepoint. For soft hyphens, Word uses 0x1F in
DOC, <w:softHyphen/> in DOCX, \- in RTF. On import, Writer converts all these
to U+00AD, so that normal U+00AD character usage is not possible, and (even
worse) one can't distinguish between normal U+00AD character usage and soft
hyphen to change non-Unicode-compliant usages to some other codepoint.
Steps to Reproduce:
Install the attached font and open the attached document
Actual Results:
You see a soft hyphen in the sample
Expected Results:
A diacritic from the font should be displayed
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
