Another RTF file not working in OOo

This file was generated by latex2rtf and it works without problems in MSOffice.
Created attachment 2833 [details] RTF file created by latex2rtf, (C) Taupitz
Moritz, thanks for taking the time to post this issue. Thank you for using and supporting OOo. The attached RTF file crashes OOo 1.0.1. Duplicated on Win NT 4.0 SP6a, OOo 1.0.1. Need to isolate part of RTF file that is causing OOo to crash.
Moritz, is there any chance you can send over all the files needed to create this RTF file? It would be ideal if you could isolate the page that is causing OOo to crash. If I try to split the RTF file up in Word, Word is fixing something in the RTF file so that it will load up in OOo.
Created attachment 3249 [details] RTF file saved by Word 2K without any user changes.
Created attachment 3250 [details] Diff file comparing the user RTF and the Word RTF
Duplicated on Win NT 4.0 SP6a, OOo 643.
The software latex2rtf can be found here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/latex2rtf/
The problem persists in OOo643C on linux.
ES->MRU: Please evaluate
MRU->CMC: Seems to be a problem with the RTF "dialect" created by latex2rtf. When building a new rtf file with Word, it is possible to import. When I try to import the latex2rtf generated file, I get loads of the Assertion "konnte die Fußnote nicht einfügen/finden" (which means in English sth. like: could't insert/find the footnote)
Have no time to work in this until 2.0 -> resolved later
Time to do something about this bug. The problem is that two of the footnotes contain footnotes. You can't nest footnotes like that.
Fixed our importer to not get into a panic about footnotes inside footnotes, will be ok in 2.0
Reopen to reassign
cmc->mru: Good in limerickfilterteam08 SRC680m1s1
Checked fix with internal CWS filterteam08.
Verified. Fix will be available with OO 2.0.
o.k. in OO 2.0 snapshot src680m13.
