[PATCH] libole2 don't convert charset in the "Document Summary" fields
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
If you open non-latin1 XL sheet in the gnumeric, then "Document Summary" fields still don't converted to suitable locale. You can use attached test-summary.xls for testing. It was saved from XL2K and includes cyrillic strings in every "Document Summary" fields. If you have cyrillic fonts and start gnumeric with LANG=ru_RU.KOI8-R, then this string must include cyrillic word that looks like "TECT". If you haven't cyr-fonts this possibly must looks like "o with ^ above" + "a with 0 above" + "o with ` above" + "o with ^ above". Now (if you haven't cyr-fonts) this possibly will looks like "O with backtick above"+"A with 0 above"+"N with tilda above"+"O with backtick above". So, I hope that some parts of code that used for the cells content conversion can be reused here.
Created attachment 560 [details] test sheet with "TECT"-like text in Doc-summary fields
