Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 36788
Frame and image import from Word result in wrong layout
Last modified: 2004-11-25 14:50:41 UTC
Original document created in Microsoft Word 2003. File|Open in OOo 1.1.3 results in right hand frame and image in incorrect position. Frames appear on second page rather than first. Formatting can be recovered by changing anchor type (to something other than page) then dragging frames back to first page.
Created attachment 19015 [details] Original Word 2003
Created attachment 19016 [details] PDF of how format should look
Created attachment 19017 [details] As seen and saved by OOo.
Was due to the fact, that graphics and frames were not capable of being positioned above/below page margins (means to have a negative vertical positioning value). This has been adressed for OO 2.0 (see issue 17567). Try out with current snapshot build from the download section. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 17567 ***
Closing duplicate.
