Description lmc 2002-04-14 13:40:24 UTC 
Every Czech language accented characters (especially "e with a hook", "c with a hook", "r with a hook"), written in 461d and saved as SDW or 
SDC etc., are replaced by "?" when opening in StarOffice 5.2. When opening again in OO461d, the question marks remains there, so the file is 
definetelly unusable.

StarOffice, which has opened document with such characters is confused in the way it can not continue writing Czech characters in such a 
document even if in another, currently opened document, can. This is serious bug as documents cannot be shared with another StarOffice 
users. 

This is probably not a problem of fonts or font replacement, as we tried whatever we can to find a solution in fonts substitution or replacement 
and did not succeed.

Comment 6 stefan.baltzer 2002-11-28 14:44:52 UTC 
Please attach a .sxw and .sdw file saved with OpenOffice (best:
latest) showing this. Thank you.
Comment 7 stefan.baltzer 2003-02-11 11:47:10 UTC 
SBA: In .sdw format, no UNICODE characters can be processed, therefore
using this format can not work.
