The thing happens really only if

* a file has been founded in oo (CTRL-N)    AND
* something has been pasted containing un-western characters

After the first operation, starting a new document, everything is
consistent. Documents are stored and loaded without loss of charatres.
After pasting something containing only western characters, everything
goes all roight. After pasting just a single non-western charcter, THE
WHOLE FILE is "infected" by the non western character of the pasted
input. This doesn't matter immediately, but only after saving and
reloading the whole file. Lots of non-western characters disappear.

The problem occurs independently of formation. If I paste-special
without formatting, the same happens. Even if I store the text to be
pasted into a plain file, copying from it results in the error.

I have also tried storing a document not founded under oo as a 'ott'
template, but the error continues.

For the time being, I have to have some blank document (founded in Word)
stored at some place, and any new doc I have to clone from this, because
CTRL-N causes data loss.

This happens similarloy to a friend who is running oo under Windows,
I've just seen him replacing odd copyright signs by our special
characters.

saving. One is founded in oo, the other in win."
