This has basically been fixed in 6.3 thanks to bug 125719's exporting fix.

However, MSWord 2016 and 2010 show bold on the output from 6.1 too. (Perhaps it would act differently if supplemental language support is installed? I only have US defaults set.)

arabicRT61.rtf: round-tripped by LO 6.1. In MSWord, the first paragraph is bold.

It is still outstanding in 7.2+ that this round-tripped file has no bold paragraph in LibreOffice. However, it opens in Word 2016, 2003, and 2010 with the first paragraph in bold.

NEEDINFO because I want to confirm that MS Word setup for an Arabic user also shows it as bold. (That requires some extra packages installed, and I can't easily do that anymore.)

Dear seven,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword
