Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 19421
Incorrect opening of a Word document
Last modified: 2003-09-12 23:21:14 UTC
I created a document in MS Word based on an HTML page. After converting the document from HTML to Word, I made some editing changes. The document behaved as expected in MS Word. After saving the document as an MS Word document, I attempted to open the document in the Text Dcoument facility of OOo 1.1 RC4. After opening only a small portion of the document was visible. It appeared that OO0 1.1RC4 was unable to open the document correctly. The document consisted of a single cell table 27 pages long, including a number of page breaks within the cell. There were also a number of "floating" pictures in the cell. After removing the table (using Word's Convert Table to Text facility), OOo 1.1 RC$ was more successful in loading the document, although the pagination and the placement of graphics in the document was not correct. The document can be forwarded if requested.
