@mba:

The way I understand it, Word does not actually provide the Unicode code of the
character, but, for numerals, just the ASCII code for the equivalent Arabic
(western) numeral and a context specifying the language. If that is the case,
and the spec ignores languages other than Arabic, numbers in all such languages
will be translated to western numerals on import -- because Word would display
(5,farsi) as an upside-down heart (U+06f5), while OOo would only see the 5.

If Word did store Unicode characters, this whole issue would be moot, wouldn't 
it?

To my regret, I cannot produce a test doc -- as I said, I am not a Farsi user.

@hennerdrewes:

Of course you are right, Word import and Windows IME are two instances of the
same problem.
