Errant insert oftabs when saving as .doc
Last modified: 2003-09-22 10:26:23 UTC
After inserting special tabs in a document, then saving as MS Word format, an extra left-align tab inserted on some lines at 2.25 ", appearing when the file is reloaded. Notes: The extra tab does not appear on the document in memory, only when re-loaded. The problem does not occur when saving in native .sxw format. (But starting from from .sxw, and then re-"save as" does have the problem.) I first noticed the problem on lines with center-align tabs. The problem occurs on other lines--nearby, with non-body text formating. This problem does NOT appear on all lines--including some with manual tab stops.
jw: can you please attach the documents(*.sxw and *.doc) the error occurs in? reassigend to mru
Yes, there were problems in the Word export filter when the paragraph style contained tabs and then tabs were inserted manually. this should be fixed now in RC4.
Closed.
