No, they shouldn't be, if so then this is another bug since I'm sure I've
selected Word/Excel 97 format while saving these files.

Anyway, can you please try what I said about reproducing the bug? Just open the
ODT file and save it in Word 97 format and the open it again. If you see
characters just like in ODT file, I'll close this as INVALID.
