Give some Japanese font style to Japanese text in word.
Set font colour to red for the above text.
Copy this from word to RTE.
Font size and font style changes after the alphanumeric characters if any included in Japanese text.
Root Cause
There is logical bug in ckeditor pzpega_ckeditor_pastefromword_filter_default plugin, where removing the empty spans and making the html fragement incomplete.
eq., <span style='font-size:medium'><span>Some text</span><span>1234</span></span>
if we remove the empty spans, font-size medium is applied only to "Some Text" not to 1234.
Need to avoid removing the spans.
//data = data.replace( /<span>/g, '' );
in CKEDITOR.cleanWord function.
