           Summary: MSO/docx compatibility: substitute fonts not working
                    when docx/odt saved as docx by LO

           Version: unspecified

                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium

I have a docx file, coming from MSO [probably not, see update below] directly
without any editing from LO, containing tick and cross symbols from Wingdings 2
as shown in image 1. Wingdings 2 is not available but it's being substituted
effectively as in image 1. utf-16 codes for characters are U+f050 and U+f04f.

observation1: If i make any change to this docx, even if not touching these
symbols, and save as docx using LO [2.docx], then it is not being substituted
correctly anymore as shown in image 2 upon reopening the 2.docx. Also happens
if I use safe mode to edit and reopen.

observation2: But if i make changes to original docx file and save as odt
instead of docx, then substitution is working ok, until I save it as docx.
