Wrong codification in Word 2010 (á, ú, ñ)

[dmnmsc]

Hello,

When I try to copy-paste from Internet to Word 2010 I get wrong characters.

How to reproduce:
1. copy any text from http://www.sport.es:
"Primero voló Lionel Messi acompañado por el kinesiólogo de la albiceleste, Luis García. Luego, el 12 de diciembre, cruzó la frontera "
2. Paste to word. You will see wrong characters:
"Primero voló Lionel Messi acompañado por el kinesiólogo de la albiceleste, Luis García. Luego, el 12 de diciembre, cruzó la frontera".

This only happens with Spanish characters (á, ñ, ú...). I'm using Wine 1.7.8 but this also happens with previous versions.

I can't reproduce this; the copied text shows up fine in Word 2010 in Wine 1.7.9 on my system. You could try upgrading, but I doubt that's the problem.

Are you sure you have the necessary fonts installed? Not all fonts contain the special characters.

How did you install Office 2010? If you made any changes other than an override for riched20, please reinstall following the instructions in the AppDB. http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... &iId=17336

Since this is only happening in Word with wine I guess I have the necessary fonts installed. Moreover, issue is only when copy-paste. I can type those characters in Word without problems.

I removed my old profile and created a new one with:

Code: Select all

WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.MSOffice winecfg

And didn't change the Windows version, is setted in Windows XP. wine-mono was downloaded fine too.

Then I installed office without issues with

Code: Select all

WINEPREFIX=~/.MSOffice wine setup.exe

And setted riched20 to native by winecfg

And... Same result. Wrong characters when copy-paste.

I'm using Chakra 64 bits.

EDIT: Seems like a Chromium bug, and not wine. Copying from Firefox works fine... silly me.

It could be an issue with your system locale. My system is set to en_US.UTF-8 and I am running the English version of Office Professional Plus 2010.

I just saw your edit. Thanks for letting us know about the Chromium bug.
