Applixware 4.4.1 Import Filter Truncates Umlauts

Applies to

Applix: Version Umlauts

Symptom:

You are importing an MS Word 97 Document into Applixware 4.4.1 via the import filter. The German (Turkish etc.) umlauts ä ö and ü, however, have been replaced by a rather vague ?.

Cause:

There is an error in an import filter routine.

Procedure:

Unfortunately there is currently no solution available. Applix Inc. plans to provide a patch as soon as possible. It will appear online at ftp://ftp.applix.com/pub/applixware/filters/Linux/libc5/.

At the time of publication of this patch our customers will be informed in the mailing lists suse-announce and suse-applix. We will also announce the patch here and at http://www.suse.de/patches.

Further editions of Linux Office Suite 99 will have the patch on CD.
