Created attachment 55744 Screen shot, only example at 90 degrees is incorrect.
Two more observations. 1. With LOImpress 3.5.0b2 made an odp with text at 89,90, and 91 degrees. Saved as .ppt Opened in PowerPoint 2003. Result: Only the text at 90 degrees is flipped, +/- one degree away is good enough to avoid the problem. (See the screen snap). Previous result showed that +/- 45 degrees also not a problem. Suggests that problem is most likely restricted to multiples of 90 degrees. 2. OpenOffice DEV300m106 does not have this problem when it saves to .ppt, rotated text stays at the angle it was set to in OOImpress. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/505188 Title: [Upstream] Impress mis-rotates text saving to .pptx Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite: In Progress Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “openoffice.org” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Binary package hint: openoffice.org Ubuntu-Karmic Openoffice version (3.1.1 = 310m19) 64bits & 32bits Binary package hint: libreoffice 1) lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu natty (development branch) Release: 11.04 2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-impress libreoffice-impress: Installed: 1:3.3.1-1ubuntu4 Candidate: 1:3.3.1-1ubuntu4 Version table: *** 1:3.3.1-1ubuntu4 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3) What is expected to happen is when one performs at the Terminal: cd ~/Desktop && wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/505188/+attachment/1868399/+files/rotations.odp && loimpress -nologo rotations.odp click File -> Save as -> File type: Microsoft PowerPoint 2007 XML (.pptx) -> Save button -> Keep format button -> close file -> reopen via the Terminal: loimpress -nologo rotations.pptx the text is displayed as it was in rotations.odp. 4) What happens instead is that the text in rotations.pptx have been rotated erroneously.
