Description alan 2006-10-17 11:59:41 UTC 
When exporting from Impress to PPT, a Hebrew line with numbering  causes the
word order to be reversed in PowerPoint, though each word on its own is ok. For
example if my numbering prefix is "A.",  instead of :

"Word3 Word2 Word1.A" (which is what I should get in RTL), I get:

"Word1 Word2 Word3.A".

If I use bullets instead of numbering, there's no problem.

Comment 7 christian.guenther 2007-04-27 15:00:57 UTC 
I tested it with the latest stable version (OOo 2.2) and can't reproduce the bug.
Please tell me if you can still reporduce the bug with the latest stable OOo build.

I was able to reproduce the bug with 2.2. I tried opening the exported file in
PowerPoint 2002.
Comment 9 christian.guenther 2007-10-30 14:32:06 UTC 
set hdu to cc
Comment 10 christian.guenther 2007-10-30 15:03:45 UTC 
I can reproduce the bug in src680m234.
before export you have to change the text direction to right to left.
Comment 11 Martin Hollmichel 2007-11-09 17:17:58 UTC 
set target from 2.x to 3.x according to
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Target_3x
Comment 12 alan 2009-07-28 10:12:45 UTC 
I saved the bug doc on m15, and it looked good on PowerPoint 2007. If you also
have good results, we should close this issue.
