Re: [libreoffice-users] compatibility with documents edited in officesuite 7

Hi Ian

You have already had a number of responses, Just as a test bench, have 
you tried to create a document of any type in LO and then reading and 
writing to it with OfficeSuite 7 Pro. If that works, it will help all of 
use responding to help drill down to the issue.

I am using the Sony Ericsson Xperia (two years old now), with Android 
ICS, and it has by default the OfficeSuite Pro 7.2.1318 built in, and I 
have no issue with any LO documents I create or transfer to and from it, 
and in .docx and .xlsx etc. formats, both in Windows 7 or Ubuntu Linux. 
As has been covered in replies, there is a large choice of formats, when 
choosing "Save as".

Personally I don't like Dropbox, too much bad reputation, and very poor 
practised data security breeches and flaws, your data is basically too 
visible to the open public space, and unsecured. Not sure if it is also 
adding to the source of your problem, but not impossible. I have tried 
now to upload and retrieve using the three I trust, Box, Ubuntu 1 and 
YouSendIt, and no problems.

I tried three docs, two spread sheets, one in .xlsx and one .xls of 2MB, 
and a .docx of 870KB. Both Windows and Linux for you, all good, I 
uploaded from Linux to my mobile device, edited the files, saved then 
added to online space, and downloaded them to Windows and to Linux, 
re-edited them, saved and uploaded back to online storage and to device. 
Device reads them fine.

Hope this help you some more to find your fault.
