Y <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEEDINFO |NEW --- Comment #2 from Y <[email protected]> --- Thanks for the workaround. The professor's software looked like windows 7 and MS Office 2010. I experienced similar, though less drammatic issues with the PPTs of another professor. In his case I am sure he used MS Office 2010 on Windows 7. Attribudes such as bold/italic/underline do not match between what is shown on his screen and what I get on LibreOffice 4.1.3.2 / Xubuntu 13.10. You will forgive me for not trying the LibreOffice version you are suggesting, for three reasons: (1) This is my production machine. I cannot afford to cause unnecessary downtime, nor can I afford backward-incompatibility within my documents. (2) Installing French localized software on my English localized machine is probably not a good idea. The PPT is in French because I am temporarily on academic exchange in a French-speaking university. (3) For Ubuntu, I prefer software from the official repositories or from Ubuntu-hosted PPAs such as https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ppa or for the specific version you are suggesting https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/libreoffice-4-0 I will be back home, where I have a spare machine that I can experiment with, after the New Year. If you still want me to test an older version of LibreOffice on Ubuntu, I can do it then on that machine, but frankly I doubt such a test will have much value. Libreoffice may say that the font used is Wingdings, but MS Office, on which the file was created and opens correctly, says it is not. I will leave it up to you to conclude which one of the two is right and which one is wrong. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
