Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 75472
\varphi replaced to \phi in Equation conversion

I have a document with MS Equation containing greek letter \varphi. I open this document OOo 2.0.4 (OS FreeBSD) and the equation looking as MS Word. After opening this equation the greek letter \varphi was replaced greek letter \phi.
Created attachment 43768 [details] MS Word document with eqation
Can confirm it for OOo2.2RC3 on WinXP. varphi φ is replaced with phi ϕ and the other way round phi is replaced with varphi.
MRU->TL: the MathType conversion needs to be enabled for this. Then the Greek letter phi/varphi will be translated wrongly from MS format. This will be visible when activating the object.
target 2.4
No more issues accepted for OOo 2.4 unless there are serious problems.
Issue should be fine once the new OpenSymbol font becomes available and the respective Math changes are done as well. Setting target to OOo 3.3 to match the target for the new font.
Checked this with DEV300_m83 (new OpenSymbol font): problem still exists, but can now properly be fixed. Setting target to OOo 3.4 since for OOo 3.3 now only showstoppers can be fixed.
