Bug ID: 151429
Summary: DDE link drops Unicode characters not representable in
Windows system encoding
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: mikekagan...@hotmail.com
1. Create a Calc document, and put some text into A1, including some Cyrillic
and Japanese: e.g., "テストabcабв"
2. Save it as ODS
3. Select A1, and copy to clipboard
4. Create a Writer document, and Paste Special -> as DDE Link.
The pasted data turns all the characters not representable in current system
encoding into question marks. This means that on most Linux systems, having
Unicode as system encoding, everything would arrive OK; but on Windows, the
text will arrive with the question marks.
