            Bug ID: 146727
           Summary: Import strings that matches specific LO Math operators
                    in MSO equations as text
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: Inherited From OOo
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Formula Editor
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: franciscoadriansanc...@gmail.com

Description:
There are several cases when some strings that are Math operators are used as
single chain strains or even variable emphasis.
Some examples are:
1) "bar" = common unit of measure for pressures, is also a command for overline
variables
2) "cicle", "square", may be single words inside an equation.
3) "+", "*" and other operators are used for emphasis, like, for instance, a
reference value.

In the attached DOCX file, there are several examples of that are not well
imported. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open attached file
2.
3.

Actual Results:
Equations 2 to 3 have been lost. If the file is saved by LO, and then opened
and saved by MS Word, there will be data loss.

Expected Results:
All equations are correctly imported.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
I don't know how "circle" and "bar" emphasis are handled within MSO, but I
think that "bar", "circle", and other strings that matches Math operators
should be imported as quoted text.

On the other hand, "+" and "*" should have been imported also as quotated text,
although I'm not sure on how to solve this case. Maybe, when Math detects an
error when importing from Word, it should import all as quoted text?
