Research direction
Start by reproducing the report with the attached scpricelist.xls using Excel reader 2.21, checking both the Russian text and the column widths. Review the existing Arabic and Spanish text patches mentioned in the issue and compare their behavior with this file. Done means the spreadsheet content is readable and its column widths are preserved.
