Description Unknown 2003-08-06 12:31:04 UTC

I use OOo 1.1 RC2 (english). I use the Writer to create text documents which 
contain greek and english text. Then I use the "Save as HTML" feature to 
export them to HTML documents in order to publish them on the web. These HTML 
documents are very large in size because the greek text in the html code is 
not shown as normat greek text, but it's like "&gamma;&omicron;&rho;&eta;" 
(this should be 4 letters).
In the OOo settings I have set "greek" as the default language. I have been 
experimenting with the settings in the "HTML Compatibility" section, but I 
cannot solve this problem. 
Is it a bug of the "Save as HTML" feature or is it a matter of not choosing 
the proper settings?
I should mention that I have not installed any greek dictionaries.

Thank you in advance,
Tier

I just figured out that the problem I described before does not 
happen when I use the "Unicode UTF-8" character set in the "HTML 
Compatibility" settings. Greek text is shown as it should be in the 
html code and the html files have a normal size.

But when the character set is set to Greek ISO-8859-7 or Greek 
Windows-1253, then the greek text in the html code is converted 
like "&gamma;&omicron;&rho;&eta;" and the html files are over 100% 
bigger.
