The Bibliographic database fields currently only support plain text -  it 
should support non European Characters. There is a long discussion of this 
issue at http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=62664

However the plain text does not include support character formatting such as 
sub/subscript letters, italic , bold etc. 

Our proposals for the redevelopment of the bibliographic facility include 
adding and using a new formatted field type, one that would support all types 
of complex text - that is with chemical and mathematical formulae, graphics 
etc. 

I hope this helps, if you still have difficulties let me know.

regards

David
