Bug ID: 126812
Summary: [FILEOPEN] Can't open a Writer (.odt) or Word (.doc)
document with Umlaute (ä/ö/ü) in its name
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.2.5.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: other
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Trying to open a Writer (.odt) or Word (.doc) document with a name containing
Umlaute, e.g. a document "Bestätigung", does not work. Instead, a dialog window
pops up, stating that the file "Best??tigung" does not exist.
I guess the file name is read with some character encoding which doesn't know
these characters, replaces them with "??" and obviously can't find such a file.
I also noticed that trying to save a file with a name containing Umlaute in
Writer will replace it with "?".
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a Writer (.odt) or a Word (.doc) document.
2. Rename the file to contain some Umlaut (ä/ö/ü).
3. Try to open the file.
Actual Results:
A dialog window pops up stating that the file does not exist.
Expected Results:
The file should be opened.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
