            Bug ID: 118948
           Summary: Date format in Impress header/footer is lost when
                    saving
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.1.0.2 rc
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Impress
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: norbert.eicker at gmx.de

Description:
In an Impress presentation a non-standard date format (e.g. July 26, 2018) of a
date in the footer line is lost when saving the presentation. Opening the saved
presentation again shows the standard date format (7/26/18). Opening this newly
saved version in an older version of Impress (I tried 5.4.6) also shows the
standard date format.

Changing the date format in the document to 'July 26, 2018' with Impress 5.4.6
and saving it fixes the document. Opening it again in 6.1.0.2 shows the correct
non-standard date format.

Saving the document another time with 6.1.0.2 breaks it again to the standard
date format (7/26/18).

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create an empty impress presentation using LO 5.4.6
2. Insert -> Header and Footer...
3. Enable 'Date and Time'
4. Enable 'Variable'
5. Chose a non-standard date Format, e.g. July 26, 2018
6. Save the file using LO 5.4.6
7. Open the file using LO 6.1.0.2
8. Save the file using LO 6.1.0.2 (without doing any additional changes)
9. Open the freshly saved file again in LO 6.1.0.2 or LO 5.4.6

Actual Results:
Date presented in the footer is '7/26/18'

Expected Results:
Date presented in the footer is 'July 26, 2018'


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
Same effect is observed using LO 6.0 instead of LO 6.1.0.2

Exact version used is:
Version: 6.1.0.2
Build ID: 10(Build:2)
CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 4.4; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3_kde5; 
Locale: de-DE (en_US.UTF-8); Calc: group threaded
