Description nenad.steric 2017-03-17 19:44:06 UTC
Description:
an imported xls File is displaying supercripts as if they are part of the baseline.

e.g. 
instead of 8 with superscripts 1,2
Calc displays the value "812"

Which is *very* bad if you need the correct value for medical treatment.




Steps to Reproduce:
1.
Go to http://eucast.org/clinical_breakpoints/
open 
"Breakpoint table for bacteria"
use the link for the xls 
to see the correct rendering you can use the pdf link

http://www.eucast.org/fileadmin/src/media/PDFs/EUCAST_files/Breakpoint_tables/v_7.1_Breakpoint_Tables.xls

(I will try to attach the file to the bug)

2.
go to e.g. Sheet "Enterobacteriaceae" 

3.
e.g. Ampicillin-sulbactam should display 8 with superscripts 1,2
instead it looks like it has the value "812"



Actual Results:  
812

Expected Results:
8 with superscript 1,2


Reproducible: Always

Workaround is to use Gnumeric, which also shows that it can be formatted correctly
