LibreOffice inputting Umlauts fails
Whenever I try to input Umlauts (ä,ö,ü) into LibreOffice
(libreoffice-5.4.5.1-r0),
I get weird looking characters back:
Input (ö):
ö
Input (ä):
ä
Input (ü):
ü
I am using edge (updated on 2018-02-28), I have exported LC_ALL as
en_US.UTF-8.
Other applications like the my terminal emulator (st)
my browser (chromium) and others handle umlauts perfectly fine.
There is no other way to force UTF-8 in LibreOffice, unfortunately.
Documents that have umlauts in them get rendered correctly.
Another user, mps in #alpine-linux in Freenode has the same problem.
