Re: [tdf-discuss] Re: [libreoffice-users] [4.0.3.3 non fixed bug] Link with a space Pdf export error (%20 characters - space ones - exported as %2520 ones)

Hi Everyone,

as I told yesterday in my first mail I will look for an already created 
issue and if not I will create it. When I make this? Now! ;-)
In any case I will make you know what I do.

@Tom:

I think that:
- on URLs, browsers - but maybe a behaviour stated on  a well determined 
W3 Standard or similar open Consortium - substitute spaces with %20 hex 
character code;
- %20 (!!!): that means that "%", "2" and "0" are all (!) well admitted 
characters, all (!!!);
- so I don't see the reason to recursively (!!!) substitute the "%" 
character when an URL is input in LibreOffice because "%" it self is 
already an accepted one;
- another low probability hypotheses in my head was that LibreOffice 
translate the space on a full 16 bit space character coding, but your 
explain about %25 representing the "%" hex code, rapidly make me clear 
what was happened;
- in any case (!), if you open the with-space link directly from a 
Writer document (ctrl+click for friends o chaps ;-) )  you will get the 
right page: in other words the link behave correctly! So the problem on 
pdf link behaviour has to be fixed in LibreOffice too!!! :-) But I do 
not think is a too hard to do, is not it?

Now I will go to open or vote an existing issue and come back here soon. 
I think we could also to maintain only one discuss: I will suggest the 
tdf-discuss one, what do you think about?

Have All a sunny day,

Carlo
