Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Libreoffice headless option

I will repeat what I think that you are saying so that I can better 
understand

In your current trials you are attempting to do something that:

1. Fails with the latest release of LibreOffice (LO).

2. Works in OOo. Do you mean the latest Apache OpenOffice (AOO), or 
legacy OOo?

If this is the case, then there was likely a version of LO where this 
did work. You could potentially determine which release of LO actually 
broke what you are trying to do. Might be helpful to the bug fixers.
