It looks that this is a problem of the ubuntu own build.

So why is that the reporter and I both see this and even with the official version when you don't? I will attach the RTF file that 3.0.0 generated for me.

But when I: - drop the ott from Windows Explorer into OOo, - save this as RTF, - reopen -> it looks NOT empty. However, we now got an RTF from you which will show empty in OOo but not in Word. This should be enough to get this issue fixed.

I had two .odt files which I saved as .rtf. I could open one of the .rtf files successfully with OOo, the other would be blank so I did some investigating of how they were different. It seems to be something to do with the paragraph styles that OOo generates when it saves as .rtf. I get a blank when I open the above attachment 57515 with OOo so I opened it in a text editor. I deleted the unused styles (the document only appears to use S1 so I deleted S2 - S12, lines 5 - 15 in the text editor) and lo and behold I can open the file with OOo.

The priority should be increased; whenever exporting to MS Word fails, RTF can be an alternative. However, when this fall back is not working either, no more options remain to transmit an editable document from the Linux world to the Windows world. This said, I have a resume written in ODT that cannot be rendered properly on MS Word as .doc or .rtf, but it is not a blank page that shows up in MS Word when reading the RTF; text with bad formating shows up. Thus this bug seams to be OOo3 related only.
