Hi Christopher, 
sorry for the delay, I was running some further tests. In this way I could 
check that indeed there is no problem while importing MS Word 97 documents 
including symbols. The problem arises just with those written in MS Word 98 for 
Mac. Attached you can find a test file to check whether you are able to 
visualize the symbols (some greek letters) or not. I think that in the original 
file, the font for this letters is set to Symbol, which is preserved on the 
OpenOffice import filter. On the contrary, Libreoffice would reset the font to 
the default one.
