             Bug #: 30060
           Summary: WPS Office writer recognizes empty document as garbled
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.4-rc5
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: fracting at gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


1. Download an English version of WPS:

http://www.kingsoftstore.com/download/office_suite_free_2012.exe

2. install office_suite_free_2012.exe
$ wine office_suite_free_2012.exe

3. start wps.exe

$ cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Kingsoft/Kingsoft Office/office6
$ wine wps.exe

Expect result:
Open an empty document as wps does in Windows

Actual result:
Open an "File Conversion" dialog, with below message:
"Select the encoding that makes your document readable."

the "Default" encoding is "ANSI/OEM Simplified Chinese GBK"
But the empty document display as 
"邢唷??*" in this encoding.

Any other encodings are tried as well but none of them works.

Wine version:
wine-1.4-rc6

Addition information:
1. LANG=zh_CN.utf8
2. this version of WPS writer is an English version. Will try the Chinese
version later.
3. Usually if we open a *.doc file in Windows with notepad, then the first two
words are "邢唷"

Will attach log
