I am preparing school-work and learning-materials in Libre-Office (formerly OpenOffice.org). I have countless hours and years of material. Lately certain special characters, which I have to use for the aboriginal language I am writing in, appear to scramble my words, and they become unreadable and documents are unusable. I do NOT know WHAT is causing this or which program is causing this, but it happens in LibreOffice documents (writer). HELP, PLEASE!!! I need to get this fixed in order to NOT loose a lifetime of documents. I am NOT a computer expert, so I do not know what else to do., or even how this is properly reported. THANK YOU in advance!
