Priority: medium
Bug ID: 73738
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: MS Word and LibreOffice writer formatting
incompatibility
Severity: major
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.1.4.2 release
Component: Writer
Product: LibreOffice
Created attachment 92280
--> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=92280&action=edit
Example doc document that displays the problem.
We have a series of MS word files in .doc format that we use as templates (they
are still in the .doc format even though we use them as templates). We have
worked hard to remove any fancy formatting, fonts etc., since 2/3 of the
company run Linux and LibreOffice.
To reproduce the erroneous behaviour:
1 - The file is OK in MS Word (2011 for Mac, 2010 for Windows).
2 - Open in Writer, version 4.1.x, 4.1.4.2, 4.2.0.2
3 - Make any change, save. I type asdf in a Body Text field and save.
4 - Open in MS Office.
The following (at least) has now happened.
1 - The logo in the two headers (page 1, subsequent pages) is no longer
visible.
2 - The Title font has changed from 32 to 10 points. Still Times New Roman
though.
3 - The footer has changed from Arial 8 points to Times New Roman 10 points.
4 - The style Important_header is rendered as Times New Roman 10 points. It was
Arial 14 points.
With Writer version 4.2.0.2, opening the document again preserves all of these.
But MS Office cannot see them. With Writer 4.1.4, the Title was simply gone
when reopened in Writer.
I believe some of the other issues were also still present in Writer 4.1.4, but
I concentrate on what is not working in 4.2.0.2 for now.
