Description teledyn 2003-08-08 06:27:57 UTC 
Opened a new text document and tested some XSL-generated XHTML file using
insert/File/asHtml -- so far so good, I export as a Word97 doc but when
I reload, the table formating is shifted way off-screen left, Word95 is shifted
completely offscreen right and down two pages -- native OOo save format restors
just fine.

Comment 2 teledyn 2003-08-08 06:33:42 UTC 
partial work-around: convert the XHTML to RTF and then load the RTF
into the Word Doc -- all tables become full pagewidth, but legible.

I can confirm, but I'm not sure if Word95 is supported?  

Also, please upgrade to 1.1rc3 or 1.1rc4 (which I understand will be
available this week).

SBA: Target set to OOo 2.0
Comment 9 stefan.baltzer 2003-09-12 15:05:36 UTC 
SBA->MRU: XHTML is JSIs playground, but I'm not sure if it is a
problem in the Word export.
Target set to OOo 2.0
Reassigned to Michael.
Comment 10 michael.ruess 2003-10-01 10:49:47 UTC 
MRU->CMC: The tables inserted from XHTL source all have relative
sizes/spacings. I don't know if its possible to fully convert this
(Word also has relative values for table/column width, but not for
spacings), but it should be possible to export some better values as
we now do.

accept task.
Comment 12 caolanm 2004-02-20 10:59:47 UTC 
I wonder who is responsible for the craziness that is the relative width
mechanism in writer :-), its pretty baroque. Nevertheless I have sorted this out
now in workspace westportfilterteam26 for inclusion in 2.0
Comment 13 caolanm 2004-03-05 12:11:42 UTC 
reopen to reassign
Comment 14 caolanm 2004-03-05 12:12:42 UTC 
cmc->mru: Good in westportfilterteam26 for 2.0
Comment 15 michael.ruess 2004-04-23 15:20:02 UTC 
checked fix in CWS westportfilterteam26.
Comment 16 michael.ruess 2004-04-23 15:21:40 UTC 
Verified.
Comment 17 michael.ruess 2004-06-09 09:22:52 UTC 
Integrated fix in snapshot build 680m38.
