Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 4604
Work Processor crashes consistently with my document
Last modified: 2003-09-08 16:56:16 UTC
I have a document that consistently causes the word processor to crash. The document is a 590K Word file. It is a manuscript for a book and has a huge number of footnotes. Under Windows 98, the word processor crashes during import. Under Windows 2000, I can import and repaginate the document, but it crashes if I click on View, Online Layout, and then attempt to go to the bottom of the document. I believe the problem is related to the large number of footnotes. The author experiences many crashes while editing his manuscripts in MS Word. I can't post this manuscript publicly, but would rather make it available to the person working on the problem. Please contact me directly at igor_birman@yahoo.com and I can make the document available. Thanks! Igor Birman igor_birman@yahoo.com
Please send the document directly to Michael (mru@openoffice.org) Reassigned to Michael.
I was not able to reproduce a crash while importing. the only thing left is : when changing the View to "online layout", the page formatting loops.
Fly frames "at character", a follow calculates fly frames which depend on characters of the master.
Fix has been committed: sw/source/core/text/frmform.cxx rev. 1.28
works fine with internal build 642f.
Closed.
