Description dovf 2003-05-19 10:57:04 UTC
Formulas embedded in a paragraph which is RTL get garbled. This is the case in 
both Documents and Presentations (I haven't checked other components). It 
happens with documents imported from Word or PowerPoint, and also with new 
documents created in OpenOffice.

I've since checked the 1.1Beta2, and the problem exists there, too...
Comment 7 sforbes 2003-06-25 09:42:46 UTC
Hmmm... this looks like a dupe of issue #14611
Comment 8 sforbes 2003-06-25 09:43:28 UTC
should been dupe of issue #13249
(my browser pasted the wrong number...)
Comment 9 mehlng 2003-06-26 09:25:56 UTC
Please mark this issue as a duplicate of #13249
Comment 10 dovf 2003-06-26 11:03:56 UTC
I'm marking this as a duplicate of issue #13249 - the only way I see 
to do it is to choose the "resolve and mark as duplicate of.." 
option - I hope that's the correct way to do it.

just in case: the problem has NOT been solved yet.
