HWPF issues

[an...@superlinksoftware.com]

Hey guys,

Has anyone tried the latest HWPF stuff recently?  I seem to be creating 
invalid simple text sequences.  Meaning when I say "insertAfter" or 
"insertBefore" all the spaces are converted to ??.  I ran HexDump on it 
and the text sequences look the same.

here's my code (below).  I pass the 
jakarta-poi/src/scratchpad/testcases/org/apache/poi/hwpf/data/test.doc 
and an ouput file as the arguments.  I tried it both the commented out 
and uncommented permutations.  (note: I made the cloneProperties() but 
that didn't cause this problem at least -- when I didn't clone it from 
an existing character run I kept ending up with bookmarks)  Am I missing 
something?

package com.superlink.poi.test;

import org.apache.poi.hwpf.*;
import org.apache.poi.hwpf.usermodel.*;
import org.apache.poi.util.HexDump;

import java.io.*;

public class HWPFTest {

     public static void main(String[] args) {
         try {
             if (args.length > 2) {
                 FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(args[0]);
                 HWPFDocument doc = new HWPFDocument(in);
                 ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
                 doc.write(bos);
                 System.out.println(HexDump.dump(bos.toByteArray(),0,0));
                 in.close();
             } else {
                 FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(args[0]);
                 HWPFDocument doc = new HWPFDocument(in);
                 Range r = doc.getRange();
                 CharacterRun run = r.getSection(0).getCharacterRun(0);
                 run.insertAfter("this is random text inserted by 
andy",run.cloneProperties());
                 System.out.println(r.text());
           //      r.insertBefore("This is a random piece of text 
inserted by andy.");
                 FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(args[1]);
                 doc.write(out);
                 in.close();
                 out.close();
             }
         } catch (Exception e) {
             e.printStackTrace();
         }
     }
}

the delta:

Notice how it at least looks like the spaces are the right character 
code.  They also look like the already existing text below.

If anyone has some insite I'd appreciate it.
