Description Maciej Pilichowski 2007-08-27 21:27:29 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.7)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

Let's say I have Polish text on the web page:
żółw

Copy (source) -> paste (target):
Konq -> OOfice -> bad (!)
FF -> Office -> ok
Kate -> OOfice -> ok
Konq -> Kate -> ok

By "bad" I mean every Polish letter is replaced by two strange letters -- it looks almost like some kind of "UTF-8 to raw 8bit" replacement.

Comment 1 Maciej Pilichowski 2007-08-27 21:29:01 UTC

PS. It happens when the page is displayed!
so when I was editing I was not able to show any bad example because
żółw (from text area) was żółw in OOffice
but after submitting this report
żółw was "translated" into Å¼Ã³Å‚w in OOffice

If analysed this before, and IIRC it's an OOo bug --- it doesn't properly support utf-8 clipboard, and messes up decoding in some other cases. Can't find the report ATM, though.

Stupid me didn't include the analysis in bugzilla... Wonder whether I still have my notes on this..

Actually, see the comment by "sadeagle@openoffice.org" (stupid OOo bugzilla didn't use maksim@kde.org) on here for the analysis:

confirming problem with diacritic character pasting (kde 3.5.7, oo.org m225).

though now the only app i could reproduce the problem with is konqueror (as i noted on the oo.org report), so i am not completely sure which app to blame.
