        <pre>Description:
I have created a few documents with LibreOffice Writer. When opening them
today, I notice that the localised extra characters of my language (Norwegian)
are changed to nonsensical characters. These are the æ, ø and å characters.

Even when typing them out, as normal, æ turns into è, ø to ú, and å to ç.
This also happens when creating a new, fresh document.

(Funnily enough, copying and pasting them turns them into the correct letters
here!)

I have made no changes to LO lately except for changing the UI to English, but
the Locale setting is still Norwegian – and I haven't run into this error
before.


Restarting in safe mode actually seems to 'fix' this problem – the characters
appear correctly. However, if starting it normally, the weird characters are
back again.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to type characters æ, ø & å into a document
2.
3.

Actual Results:
Æ, ø and å turns into weird, other characters

Expected Results:
I expect to see the actual characters I put in


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes


OpenGL enabled: Yes
