Created attachment 189438 [details] A .docx file with a MathTYpe equation that uses underscores '_' Hello everyone. (I suppose this report is a Document Liberation Project bug ; sorry if this is wrong. I dunno to which component it should be attached) When you import a MSword .docx document that has equations that use the MathType using underscores '_', the underscore letters are not converted correctly : Underscores are handled as 'subscript' (as in Latex) and not as the _ char. Tested on MacOS only (.docs documents created on the mac), but probably windows-related also. Bug occurs with LibreOffice or LibreOffice-online, no matter the version (tested 4.X and 7.X). Thanks for attention !

This seemed to be quite decent (but not perfect) looking in 4.4: one line, all text visible, with one underscore slipping below the next character. In 5.0 it has changed, several lines above each other with some ? marks. This changed again in 5.4 to the current state when the text is visible only to the first underscore. So looks like a double regression.
