Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 62698
Calc cannot handle Asian phonetic guide (ruby) text
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:12:27 UTC
Writer has support for Asian phonetic guide text (ruby or furigana) but Calc cannot edit or display it. Marking as a defect because this breaks import from Excel and is a potential dataloss - an xls file with ruby will have the ruby stripped if it is opened re-saved in Calc.
Created attachment 34538 [details] an excel file with ruby text (the base text is "text" the ruby text is "tekst")
Hi, a defect means that the feature has worked sometimes. This is not the case. So, this is a feature request and therefore has to be handled by the requirements team. Frank
