Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 8911
Word callout drawing object arrows change position and shape

Hi, The word processor in 1.0.1 doesn't convert call out boxes correctly. I used the call outs as annotation in a document that also contains a screen capture. All were created in MS Word 7. The start points of the call outs are changed and the text boxes are resized.

Farhiz, thank you for using and supporting OOo. The arrow/line for the callout object changes position and shape when imported into OOo. This happens with OOo/Winword conversion on and off. The text box size is preserved. With the users attachment, I printed out the doc and overlaid them to verify size. The text box sizes are preserved. Partially duplicated on Win2k server SP3, OOo 643c. Test case created using Word2k. Duplicated on RH 8.0, RH OOo 1.0.1. 1.0.1 also incorrectly sizes the textbox. User summary Callout text boxes created in MS Word 97 do not convert correctly in 1.0.1
Calc and Impress have the same problem. Issue 2032 and 5426 respectively.
Reassigned to MRU
Yes, Issue 5426 describes exactly the sane as this issue. The wrong size of the textboxes in 1.0.1 should be corrected in upcoming 1.0.2 and existing 643C. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 5426 ***
closed, because double.
