Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 13320
Word97/2000/XP Export of illustrations with caption often seperates image and caption.

The problem can be reproduced by following: Start a new text document. Enter two paragraphs. Insert an image (from file) into the second paragraph. Add a caption to this image by using the built-in caption function from the context menu. Now change the properties (reduce size of image, "Wrap after") so that the paragraph looks for example like this: ----------- Text Text | | Text Text | Image | Text Text | | Text Text |Image 1: XX| Text Text ----------- Text Text Text Text Text Text tex If the document is now exported to Win97/2000/XP file format the image with the caption and the frame around will be seperated, the frame (still containing the caption) being located beneath the image or somewhere next to it. This error does NOT occur if I just insert an image and an image caption into a new document without changing the position/wrap of the image's frame. This bug I found in OOo 1.0.1 (DE version) and in the OOo 1.1 beta. It makes it impossible for me to export correctly formatted texts having images and image captions.
Created attachment 5597 [details] A test file that gets incorrectly exported to Word.
Created attachment 5598 [details] A "real life" test file with advanced formatting of the images.

1.0.3.1 does not have the export problem. 1.1 Beta 2 has problems exporting the caption underneath the graphic in "Image bug2.sxw". 1. Load "Image bug2.sxw" 2. Save as 97/2000/XP Word document format. 3. Load in Word2K. Caption is hidden behind graphics or placed incorrectly.
Reassigned to MRU
The problem here is, that it is not an issue in Writer's export, it is more a shortcoming of Ms Word format. It does not allow to anchor a graphic to a paragraph inside a text box (only "inline" graphics are allowed there). And when using inline graphic for the export, the layout will also be destroyed. Unfortunately, this is not fixable in OO Writer's export.
Closed. Not fixable for Writer.
