Bug ID: 167238
Summary: Headings Appearing under Bookmarks
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 25.2.4.3 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
It is all here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/libreoffice/comments/1lka28z/headings_appearing_under_bookmarks/
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Hello, I am referring to this thread:
https://www.reddit.com/r/libreoffice/comments/1frfei5/headings_appearing_as_bookmarks/
.
I have the same problem. I download Google Docs by rt-clicking and "Download".
The file saves as a .docx file. I then open it in LibreOffice (version
25.2.4.3) and, in Navigator, all the headings are under Bookmarks and they look
like gibberish, something like _1tdt78wjcgwc or _h1p8261pnb84 ... There is
nothing under Headings.
Here is the thing though. I have a copy of OpenOffice (4.1.15) and the same
file retained the correct headings in Navigator.
I was wondering if there is a workaround to get the headings to work correctly
in LibreOffice .
Thank you!

--------------------------------THE NEXT DAY------------------------
Thank you for taking the time to read the previous post and troubleshoot that
example document. When I open that sample document (Locations.docx) in
LibreOffice, I *do* see the headings under Bookmarks as gibberish (ex.
_455rv5to0qsk / _cpfw0f3bg1t8 etc). I also see properly formatted headings in
OpenOffice. I wish I can screenshot here. I did create a sample document of my
own with screenshots here:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Kj8kTJkIrxmfW1PLlUMsDqMMYXTSLNuJ6w6hleCq0S4/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.50t8qy4c667n
I did what you did with the Outline:
highlight the heading (like H1/H2 etc) --> rt-click --> Paragraph --> Edit
Style
OR
highlight the heading --> Alt-P
In the Paragraph Style Window:
Outline & Lists --> Outline Level --> set it to the appropriate level
After applying these changes I updated the sample document above with a
screenshot
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Kj8kTJkIrxmfW1PLlUMsDqMMYXTSLNuJ6w6hleCq0S4/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.a20avz9hnwes
I am super grateful that you took the time to point out the issue. Thank you!
I guess now I wish LibreOffice folks would address this because it is a manual
fix and time consuming if you have hundreds of documents to convert. As
suggested by another post I will submit this to bugs and hope for the best.
Again, Thank you very much!
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open .docx file downloaded from GoogleDocs
2.
3.
Actual Results:
in Navigator, all the headings are under Bookmarks and they look like
gibberish, something like _1tdt78wjcgwc or _h1p8261pnb84 ... There is nothing
under Headings.
Expected Results:
Headings under headings
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
Additional Info:
The software recognizes the headings, only fails to apply appropriate Outline
Levels under Paragraph Style. When I do this manually, the headings are fixed
in the Navigator.
