Bug#295109: tex4ht: openoffice export error with manuscript style

[Alexis Parseghian <a.parseg@gmail.com>]

Package: tex4ht
Version: 20030426-3
Severity: normal


Incorrect encoding of \oe{} in htlatex openoffice export when tex package
"manuscipt" is used. The following example generates an incorrect encoding
for \oe{} which prevents OO.o from loading the resulting "content.xml" file.

manuscript.sty posted on comp.text.tex 23 march 1998, unable to find a more 
recent version (the one on CTAN failed to generate the proper fixed-font, 
doublespaced output on regular tex to dvi processing)

>>> manuscript.sty header
%%% test version for a style producing manuscript-like output.
%%% Stefan Ulrich <ulrich@cis.uni-muenchen.de>, with
%%% suggestions by Rowland <rebecca@astrid.dog.u-net.com, no animal>
%%% and modifications by Steve Kilbane <steve@whitecrow.demon.co.uk>
>>> end manuscript.sty header


Simple test case tex document:
>>> testcase.tex
\documentclass{book}
\usepackage[submit]{manuscript}

\title{Test case for oe ligature}

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
\usepackage[frenchb]{babel}
\FrenchLayout

\begin{document}

Rodrigue, as-tu du c\oe{}ur ?\\
Tout autre que mon père l'éprouverait sur l'heure

\end{document}
>>> end testcase.tex


Command issued:
htlatex testcase.tex "xhtml,ooffice" "ooffice/! -cmozhtf" "-coo"


With manuscript package used as above, the \oe{} is incorrectly encoded
as a single char (line 24):

>>> resulting content.xml subdocument, line numbers added
01:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> 
02:<!DOCTYPE office:document-content PUBLIC "-//OpenOffice.org//DTD OfficeDocument 1.0//EN" "office.dtd">

28:</office:document-content>
>>> end content.xml subdocument

Document fails to load in OO.o 1.1.4 with the following error:
"read error - format error in subdocument content.xml, position 24,69"


The encoding is correct when manuscript package is not used:

>>> resulting content.xml subdocument, excerpt
24:<!--l. 13--><text:p text:style-name="p-noindent">Rodrigue, as-tu du c&#x0153;ur ?
>>> end content.xml subdocument excerpt
