            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
