Description ernsts 2003-05-06 17:58:11 UTC 
Some of my StarOffice5.2 and OOo1.x documents created under Windows98SE
cannot be opened with OOo 1.00-1.03 on my new system running WindowsXP,
OOo immediately crashes when doubleclicking such a document.
On other systems, the documents can be opened without a crash.

It turned out that the problem is related to the printer available on the 
system. I was able to track it down to the configuration item 
<config:config-item config:name="PrinterSetup" config:type="base64Binary">...
in the XML file settings.xml. If I remove this configuration item, the 
document can be opened.

I had the same default printer driver "Laserjet 1100" on the Win98 system where
the documents were created than on the new WinXP system; it seems as if the
"PrinterSetup" data is formatted differently for the Win98 and WinXP printer 
drivers, and the setup from Win98 crashes OOo (or the printer driver) when 
used 
on XP.

A workaround for saving the documents (even the ones from StarOffice) is to
rename the printer, e.g. from "Laserjet 1100" to "Laserjet".

Entry in a file that crashes OOo (was created under Win98):

set target
Comment 4 stephan_schaefer 2003-10-16 14:21:31 UTC 
The problem are incompatibilities between the 98 and XP drivers. Now
this is checked before feeding the driver with (wrong) setup data.
