Description Ryan Ackley 2003-08-27 14:28:50 UTC

The old code base of HDF was not designed or tested to handle non-english 
character sets. Make sure that this is not the case for the new codebase (HWPF)

Given that people report success with Arabic word documents and have submitted patches, this requirement has been met.
