I have confirmed the bug using a file that Jonathan was kind enough 
to provide.  I was able to derive a reproducible test case for the
bug, which arises when older RTF (\rtf0) format files are opened by
Apache OpenOffice 4.1.1 (and earlier) and then saved in RTF format,
whether edited or not.  The defect involves incorrect conversion to
newer (\rtf1) RTF format.

The test case demonstration has been added at 
<https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=68343>.

Subject: Intermittent problem with RTF files

I recently saved an RTF file, and after I saved the file it was 
corrupted completely.  As far as I can tell, the problem is intermittent 
and I know of no way to reproduce it consistently.

How can I determine if this is the same issue that was reported earlier 
as bug #68343 (http://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=68343)?

When I download the attachment in the bug report, I see that it is in a 
foreign language; however, making any change to it, and saving, produces 
a similar symptom to what I experienced.  But the most recent comment in 
the bug report indicates that it was not reproducible using in 
"ooo320-m19" (which, I understand, is the same as OpenOffice 3.2.1), and 
I have Open Office 4.0.1.

How do I know whether bug #68343 applies only to documents written in 
the language in question, or whether it has the same underlying cause as 
the problem that I experienced?
