Reassign to dcone, similar to bug 69610?

The way the characters are trashed and where they appear would suggest this is not the same as #69610.

Changing QA Contact to ylong@netscape.com.

per triage: reassigning to rods

Erik, could you review this patch? I am not really sure about the UNICODE or MBCS parts of the patch. I think the UNICODE is fine but the MBCS is probably wrong. Casting to (wchar_t*) is probably bad.

Instead of using the _UNICODE ifdef, we normally call the 'W' functions directly. In this case, that would be ::StartDocW(). You can pass Unicode strings to this function directly. QA can then test this on several platforms (English/Japanese Windows 95/98/NT/2000) to see if StartDocW really works everywhere.

Nominating for nsbeta1 and M0.9.1. Looks like we have a proposed patch.

Rods - If we have a proposed patch, why are we waiting until 1.0 to fix this?

Rods/Vishy - Can someone pls explain the milestone of M1.0, if a patch already exist?

No idea, rod?

I am really not the right guy to have this bug. I AM the right guy to help out with this bug. It should really be someone else bug. Now that Erik is gone, who can help out with this? I need someone to test the proposed patch.

Adding ftang to cc: list. Ftang - Can you help out on this one. Seems like rods needs help, and this may be out of his area of expertise.

Per Vishy's request, setting priority P2 and milestone to M0.9.2, so that we can triage.

I believe this was fixed by Rod checkin to fix localization issues with the print dialog a few weeks ago. Marking Fixed.

Fixed verified on 08-22 trunk build on Win2k-CN.
