Description Kevin Suo 2014-09-26 09:59:37 UTC
The attached ODT file has an OLE object (another ODT file) embeded. The preview icon is showing garbled charactors, while it should show Chinese chars "测试文档".

Steps to reproduce:
1. New Writer;
2. Insert -> Objects -> OLE Objects -> Object Type: Further Objects -> Create from File -> "Browse" to select any ODT file.
3. Check the "Show as Icon" checkbox, then click the "Change Icon" button, in Label field input the Chinese chars "测试文档".
4. OK until the end.

--> OLE object is inserted and is showing as icon, but the text below the icon is showing as garbled/unreadable charactors.

Version: 4.3.2.2
Build ID: edfb5295ba211bd31ad47d0bad0118690f76407d
