Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Problem happen when import text with Chinese

NoOp, thanks for your information.

Readin your comment I understand I was a bit off of the issue which originated this thread. 
Especially your comment on the "Fixed Width" is very interesting. I did not consider such an import 
process.

Your comment on the situation of copying Chinese text into calc let's me think that there is an 
improvement going in the right direction. In 3.5.4 or 3.5.5 unreadable characters appeared. In 3.5.6 
the characters were correct but the fonts are wrong and there was overlapping. In 3.6.2 it seems to 
be even better.

However, did you make a test by copying directly into cells (what you did) AND copying into the 
input line? It would be interesting to also know if the result is exactly the same or if there is a 
difference as in 3.5.6.
