Issues that this hotfix package fixes

  • Assume that you install February 2013 cumulative update for Microsoft Outlook 2010. You create a Rich Text Format (RTF) email message, and then save it as an Outlook Form Template (OFT) file. In this situation, when you open the OFT file from the file explorer, the file is opened as an HTML file and it has incorrect fonts and formatting. This issue occurs only when Outlook uses an online mode profile.

  • Assume that you create a Word 2010 document, and then you type some Hebrew text that includes numbers into the document. You save the Word document as a PDF file. You open the PDF file, copy the numbers, and then paste them to a new document. In this situation, the digits in the numbers may be reversed (for example, "321" instead of "123"), or the digits may be completely different.

  • Assume that you open a Word 2010 document on a Windows 7-based client computer. When you change the vertical text in the Yu fonts style to another font style, the parenthesis and the punctuation are displayed incorrectly.

  • Changes that you make in a Word 2010 document are missing after you close and reopen the document if you had the Input Method Editor (IME) pad open and if you previewed font styles when you made the changes.
