Bug ID: 159548
Summary: LibreOffice Writer claims .doc file is corrupt. It is
not corrupt.
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.6.4.1 release
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Writer version 7.6.4.1 will not open a valid .doc file create by Microsoft Word
2003.
Writer version 7.5.1.2 opens the file with no problem. This fails on all Word
2003 files, even if they are a simple one line text without special fonts or
graphics. This is apparently a new bug introduced in LibreOffice 7.6.
Message follows:
The file 'check.signature.doc' is corrupt and therefore cannot be opened.
LibreOffice can try to repair the file.
The corruption could be the result of document manipulation or of structural
document damage due to data transmission.
Steps to Reproduce:
Attempt to open any .doc file created by Microsoft Office Word 2003.
Actual Results:
The file 'xyz.doc' is corrupt and therefore cannot be opened. LibreOffice can
try to repair the file.
The corruption could be the result of document manipulation or of structural
document damage due to data transmission.
We recommend that you do not trust the content of the repaired document.
Execution of macros is disabled for this document.
Should LibreOffice repair the file?
Expected Results:
The .doc file should open
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
