Description libbybai 2004-05-12 12:10:43 UTC 
Files that were created in OO (all versions although I'm using the latest 
Beta) that use the Hebrew font David, when opened in MS-Word - the font of the 
text changes to Miriam (the default font of Microsoft Word and a system font 
in Windows OS) but the drop-down box with the fonts name continues to show 
David. This happenes only with these 2 fonts, and only with regularly-
formatted text (David bold looks like David). The font cannot be changed to 
David, and even copying the text to a new document keeps the Miriam look while 
insisting that it's David.

This seems to be a special case. I cannot reproduce this on my machine using OO
1.1.1 / 680m38 and MS Word XP/2003. Please attach native OO Writer document
which exported to MS Word format produces the mentioned change in font.
Thanks for supporting us!

MRU-MM: can you see what's going wrong in the export without having the source
.sxw? When opening the file in WW, the CTL font is mapped to the default font.
