Example file from Word 2013 with custom legend font settings

Chart legends in documents created in Microsoft Word 2013 and saved as DOCX with custom font settings are displayed with the default font settings in LibreOffice Writer.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create an empty text document in Microsoft Word 2013
2. Insert a chart
3. Change the character settings of the chart legend
4. Save the file as DOCX in Word 2013 and open it in LibreOffice Writer

Actual results:
The chart legend is displayed with the default fonts

Expected results:
The chart legend should be displayed with the custom fonts

Comment 3 Gabor Kelemen (allotropia) 2019-01-08 13:02:00 UTC
Addition: the chart legend entries were formatted in Word one by one, not as the whole legend.
On the other hand this is not possible in LO, only the whole legends character properties can be changed - which works fine, btw.

Legend entries can still not be individually formatted, this is a missing feature.
