There are no new official OpenOffice.org releases in Ubuntu packaging anymore => Won't Fix  

If the problem persists, please mark this bug as "also affects project
Libreoffice" or "also affects distribution Libreoffice (Ubuntu)" if that
has not happened already.

Please leave references to upstream OpenOffice.org bugs in place to

  LibreOffice:
  What is expected to happen is when creates the attached file in MS Word with Hebrew characters, then performs at the Terminal:

  cd ~/Desktop && wget
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/667453/+attachment/1713423/+files/Hebrew%20document%20with%20formulas.doc
  && lowriter -nologo Hebrew\ document\ with\ formulas.doc

  it does not display �.

  Abiword:

  cd ~/Desktop && wget
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/667453/+attachment/1713423/+files/Hebrew%20document%20with%20formulas.doc
  && abiword Hebrew\ document\ with\ formulas.doc

  it does not display the square with 4 numbers in it.

  LibreOffice:
  What happens instead is that � is displayed. Screenshot of this problem is available at: http://yfrog.com/nescreenshot077gp

  Abiword:
  What happens instead is that the square with 4 numbers in it is displayed.

  WORKAROUND: Open with Word 2003 in WINE via the Terminal:

  wine "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\WINWORD.EXE" Hebrew\
  document\ with\ formulas.doc

  Microsoft Office Excel 2003 (11.5612.5606)
