Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 67217
WW8: structure of complex table re-imported wrongly after export
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:17:46 UTC
I tried Sun's sample Swedish Writer document in OOo 2.0.3, saving it as DOC 97/ 2000/XP and reopening in Writer. http://www.sunvirtuallab.com/sample_docs/109189/generic_sv.sxw Examine the table on the last page. (It's supposed to have lots of strange characters, btw.) The content in the cells in the upper right corner is either cropped or disappeared when the DOC file is reopened in Writer. Note that it's still possible to search for the disappeared contents, for example "institutioner och organ". Is it just invisible? I saw this behaviour in Norwegian Nynorsk OOo 2.0.3 RC7 on Linux, but I could also reproduce it in the final English Windows XP version of 2.0.3. (I don't have MS Word around to see how it appears there.)

MRU-MBA: take the shorter sample I am going to attach here. Open it in Writer, export to WW8 format and reopen in Writer -> the structure of the table has changed; means, that there are cells, which haven't been there before. Good to see e.g. in the upper right.

The docx import filter consumed most of our resources in the "interop" area. Due to that we must retarget this issue. -> 3.x
