Here is the problem: 
 
I created a large number of PowerPoint presentations with a large number of 
equations. 
 
When I import them in version 1.1.4, the resulting impress file is almost ok, 
I only have to modify the fonts to obtain a similar result. However the 
equations are imported as images, not as equations that can be edited. 
 
When I use the french version of version 1.1.3 (on fedora core 3 and my system 
is setup with french canadian as the native language and keyboard), the fonts 
are all perfect and many equations are imported perfectly as equations that 
can be edited. However, some greek characters are not imported properly. For 
example: rho. When I check in the equation editor of version 1.1.3 in french, 
I note that I need to put %rhô (with a circonflex accent on the o for those 
without a properly setup character set) and not %rho as should logically be 
used. On import, it seems that impress replaces every such greek letter by ''.  
 
Does someone has a solution to that problem, other that editing each equation 
and replacing each lost rho, mu or other... 
 
Thank you
