Comment 2 Andreas J. Guelzow 2004-11-01 18:11:25 UTC 
Very interesting. The real problem is that the " Chart by Michael K. Davis,
zilch0primenet.com" text extends to the left rather than the right and that
confuses the exporter (It is trying to use columns to the right rather than to
the left.)

This is a shorter sample file showing the problem described in this bug. Oh
yeah, and it's a gnumeric file.
