I tried to print a medical report in Italian POSTed from
a form with a textarea and saved in a variable such as
$medicalreport

To display it in a openoffice document I included in a php
script most of example 2 of the phpdocwriter documentation.

Substituted Country references, that in the example are
es/ES, with it/IT

Italian accented characters like é č ů ŕ ň ě are rendered
badly, only a capital letter A with gibberish symbols
are displayed

    So try to write each time u use a character like one of these
    preceeded with 'utf8_decode("Your Text"). It should resolve
    most of your problem.
