------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Jul 6 05:13:45 -0700 2006 ------- Created a Writer file (success.doc), saved as Microsoft Word 97/2000/XP.doc. Multiple recipients reported that Word would not open the file (Word 2000, Word XP, Word 2003). It would begin to open, then hang with nothing visible on the screen except the Word toolbars. Recipients had to manually stop Word. The file had 3 images. Since these are generally high problem areas, I tried various combinations of saving without one image and then the next, etc. I determined that the third image was the problem. It appears to be a bog standard BMP file (can be opened by Corel PhotoPaint, IrfanView, Mediachance Photo Brush and Gimp). I believe I left all picture properties as default, but do not remember. I might have reduced its size. For some reason, I alone was able to open the file from within Word XP. I believe the others tried to open it by clicking on links in email clients or double-clicking on the file in Explorer. (The others could not open the file from within Word, however.) When I re-saved the file under a new name in Word, this new file could be opened by others. Its file size shot from 427KB (OOo.org DOC file) to 1697KB (Word DOC file). This is either a one-time anomoly or some sort of issue with Word export around one particular kind of BMP file... --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
