Re: [libreoffice-users] TeX output crashes LibreOffice

Hi :)
You might find that boosting the figures in 
Tools - Options - Memory 
might help.  There is certainly a LOT of room on that Xubuntu machine so pushing them up just to 
test the guess shouldn't be a problem.  

Definitely file a bug-report even if bumping up the memory options does work

I have a document originally written with L-O but saved in Word (.doc)
format. Eight pages, no very complex formatting. One column, section
headings, endnotes, a couple of tables. Exporting a PDF or HTML works
fine.

Trying to export in TeX format crashes L-O every time. It goes to
work, there's a progress bar across the bottom of the screen. It goes
most of the way across then hangs. If I try to stop it, I get a "this
window is not responding" message. Saving in ODT format instead did
not help; the ODT file crashes it too. Changing the "backend" field in
the menu page that comes up when exporting does not seem to help
either.

There are obvious workarounds -- for example I can export plain text
and manually apply TeX tags or export RTF and use a command-line tool
to get to TeX -- but I'd sooner not have to do that.

This happens on two different machines, both Ubuntu. This one is
Xubuntu 12.04 with "LibreOffice 3.5.3.2 Build ID: 350m1(Build:2)" and
all available Xubuntu updates applied. It is a 3GHz dual core i3
machine with 8 gigs RAM and SSD disks so I don't think resource limits
are the problem. The other machine is less powerful and has less
up-to-date versions of everything.
