Description NISZ LibreOffice Team 2020-10-20 06:40:47 UTC
Created attachment 166523 [details]
Example file from Word 365 with all default date/time fields

Attached file was made in a Hungarian O365 Word to demonstrate all the default date/time field formats.
When opened in Writer all fields appear in English locale despite the document language is Hungarian.
A similar document made in Word 2013 opens correctly with Hungarian locale.

Steps to reproduce:
    1. Open attached document.

Actual results:
English date formats.

Expected results:
Hungarian date formats.

Look at all those <w:lang w:val="hu-HU"/> from the latter, that are absent in the former.
And here comes the question: what are the locale settings in your LibreOffice, that are rightfully used when the document does not provide the language information.

Likely NAB.

On the other hand, MS Word 2016 shows Hungarian dates in those fields on my Windows (Russian locale, English UI), even after refresh, so the language information likely exists somewhere else in the file.

Sounds like a duplicate of bug 99236.
