Re: [libreoffice-users] Please help/advice...

Hi :)

Good move.  Posting a new bug-report and linking it to the old one was good 
because they appear to be slightly different.  OOo have never been fast at 
accepting fixes for bugs which was part of the reason for Go-oo. LibreOffice and 
Go-oo merged bringing in a wealth of well-tested code.  LibreOffice is working 
at fixing the back-log while also developing new features.

The document is not a document, it is a template, and it contains a lot of 
macros.  Documents produced using the template 'should' be easier to translate 
into MS Office formats.  MS Office uses dangerous and vulnerable systems for 
it's macros.  Presumably OOo and LibO macros are very different.

Can you save this template as a document with no macros? 
File - "Save As .."

Good luck and regards from
Tom :)

Subject: [libreoffice-users] Please help/advice...

Hello my name is Chris Fleischmann, I have been using the OpenOffice SDK with 
OpenOffice.org for quite some time. All was working well, except for when I 
tried to save my document to MS Word format. I came across a bug where by a 
TextFrame with a background image (attribute: BackGraphicURL is set), contains 
another TextFrame holding an image, (see uploaded 
http://www.openoffice.org/nonav/issues/showattachment.cgi/67358/test2.sxw sample 
exhibiting one of the errors seen when opening in MS Word)... When trying to 
save the document, you get an error and the document doesn't open properly in MS 
Word, 2000, XP, 2003 or 2007. I previously logged a bug against this as: 
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=103356

However this bug was closed as a duplicate of : 
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=32638... However this bug is 
not the same I believe, and exhibits different behaviours... In any case, this 
bug has been opened for some time, and I guess I am hoping for a solution or any 
possible workaround. I can't imagine people liking the idea that they can't save 
their documents in MS Word format to not be able to open?

I have tried now using LibreOffice for personal reasons as well as newer 
features, but the problem still can be observed with 3.3.0
OOO330m19 (Build:6), tag libreoffice-3.3.0.4

Thanks for any help you may be able to provide on the subject.

Kind Regards,

Chris
