Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 68990
Imported RTF-file, saved as .odt is corrupt when loaded
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:17:40 UTC
I downloaded an RFT-file (http://www.dfg.de/forschungsfoerderung/formulare/download/30_02.rtf) which I needed to fill in. The file open without any problems in OOo Writer (Ubuntu Dapper, OOo 2.0.2 as well as Windows XP, OOo 2.0.3). I did that and saved the result as an odt-file (and fortunately also as an PDF). When I tried to load this new file, OpenOffice shows a read error and tells me that the file is corrupt. I repeated this by just opening the (redownloaded) rtf-version and saving it without any modifications as .odt with the same result (also on both OS'es). Other rtf-files, also from the same source, did not show this phenomenon when saved as odt. This is NOT a duplicate of issue 32690 which seems to be solved.

Created attachment 38795 [details] The "saved" odt-file which cannot be loaded
MRU->HBRINKM: open the attached RTF and save as odt. When trying to re-open the odt you will get an error message and file cannot be opened. The RTF document contains many FormFields; maybe the problem is somewhere there.
Dear developers, please consider this data-loss issue for 2.3. I am attaching another rtf that exposes described problem. We also have simmilar issues http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=50907 http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=44684 that are "fixed".

Created attachment 44358 [details] Resulting .odt
