Priority: medium
Bug ID: 77064
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Summary: FILEOPEN: UTF-8 0xC2 0x8D character not parsed
correctly with Calc
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: jw.he...@gmail.com
Hardware: Other
Whiteboard: BSA
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.2.2.1 release
Component: Spreadsheet
Product: LibreOffice
Created attachment 96918
--> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=96918&action=edit
A simple .csv file containing a 0xC2 0x8D character
Problem description: valid UTF-8 encoded .csv files containing the character
'0xC2 0x8D' are not parsed correctly.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Obtain a file containing the "reverse line feed" Unicode character, 0xC2
0x8D.
2. Open with LibreOffice Calc, specifying comma delimited and UTF-8 encoding.
3. The character will be rendered as a square.
Current behavior: A colleague has verified with python that the .csv file
(attached) is correctly encoded with UTF-8 (no parsing errors), however
LibreOffice does not seem to handle it correctly. I get either a square (Linux)
or oriental character (Windows). His take on the issue is that LibreOffice is
only reading the first byte of the two-byte character.
Expected behavior: The character should be interpreted as a "reverse line
feed," which is what it is.
Operating System: All
Version: 4.2.2.1 release
