Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 56836
.doc imports with heading 3 style indent off by * -1
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:26:00 UTC
The attached HeadingOOOBug.doc file uses styles, and in particular the outlining Heading 1, Heading 2, ... styles. I've used these styles for years across multiple versions of Word. Reading the .doc in, Heading 3, which should have an indent of 0.38 inch, comes in defined with an indent of -0.38 inch. I'm running OOo 2.0 on Mac OS through X11.
Created attachment 30940 [details] doc heading 3 style imports with indent off by * -1
MRU->OD: the Heading 3 level should have a bullet character here, but notlike Heading 2, Heading 3 paragraphs have as hard attribute in WW,not as outline level.
According to the discussion with MRU, we decided to adjust the target to 'OOo 3.0' OD->FLR: Please take over. The mapping of the indents for the paragraph style and the numbering doesn't work correctly for the WW8 paragraph styles "Heading 2" and "Heading 3". In WW8 the paragraph style "Heading 3" is assigned to *two* numbering levels. This also seems to trouble our WW8 import.
I've built these doc styles up through several versions of Word, so I can believe that the styles or my template document have picked up some internal logical flaw at some point. Not giving this a high priority seems reasonable -- the conditions which lead to this document are probably rare.
Due to missing resources retargetted to "OOo Later"
