word-files saved in OO 1.0.2 opens without text in OO 1.1RC4. this is on linux. reproducability: 2/2 documents. steps to reproduce: 1. taka a word file created in word XP (in my case i got a file from another person). 2. open it in OO 1.0.2 (all works fine). 3. do some changes. 4. save it, OO askes to change format, do NOT change format. but do save. 5. close, OO 1.0.2 6. open OO 1.1RC4 7. open the word file that you saved in wordformat in OO 1.0.2 8. no text is visible.
additional information. this seems to apply to all files saved as wordfiles in OO 1.0.2 and then opened in OO 1.1RC4. not only those first created by MS Word.
Please Attach the documents which make this problem, so we can test it. (Without the documents, we cannot confirm the problem easily) Don't forget to cut other part of the documents, so the file size is small, but we still able to see the problem. But I didnt have 1.0.2. maybe somebody have it can try it. how about 1.0.3 ?
now i had a chance to open a wordfile created in word, not edited in OO, same problem. so this seems to apply to alla wordfiles.
Created attachment 9475 [details] creted in wordXP on win2000, displays no text when openend in OO 1.1 RC4 on linux

in OO 1.1 RC5, word documents open, but the font is totally wrong. OO says it is for example Times New Roman 12, but displays some other font with size 16-20. formatting is lost and it looks really bad. the problem is visible with the files attached with this bug.
reassigned to mru @mru: Please have a look to this... I opened the files on Solaris using OO01.1RC5 and I think all went fine... I'll attach a screenshot of it (I just don't know if the seen text is really all content)...

Yes, this is known. See issue 20558 for further information and progress on it. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 20558 ***
Closed as duplicate.
I opened the oo103win_good_oo11rc4lin_bad file on my Linux MDK 9.1 with the OOo680m11 build. The file opens and displays fine. However, in the font dropdown menu, it states that two fonts are present : Thorndale, and Times New Roman, separated by a semi-colon. How can this be ? I thought that Thorndale was only present in StarOffice and not OOo. I seem to remember that 1.0.3 contained a reference to Thorndale even though it wasn't present in the fonts installed with OOo. Does the fact that there are two fonts indicated mean that the first is replaced by the second ? Alex.
Tried the XP file under the 680m11 build on Linux MDK 9.1. The file opens fine. The font is displayed as Times New Roman. Alex.
utomo > alex; for double font, I create Issue 22296 if you reproduce on linux, please change the OS to all there Thanks
