--- Comment #3 from Nikos Platis <[email protected]> 2012-03-27 11:08:01 PDT --- (In reply to comment #2) > 2/ MS-Word-6 format id not the default format when you save a document with a > doc extension. Try this: > + open a new document > + type some text > + click on save button > + type a name with .doc extension without choosing a file format and > validate > So you get the alert on file format which ask you to keep MS-Word > 97/2000/XP/2003 format or to use OpenDocument Format. > If you want to save in MS-Word-6, you need to choose it explicitly. Unfortunately, this was not the case for me: On Arch Linux x86_64 with libreoffice-kde4 package installed, when I type a filename with .doc extension the file type changes to "Microsoft Word 6.0 (.doc)". > > I suggest to close this bug as WontFix because of too old and unsupported > target format. I strongly disagree. If Word 6 exists as an export format, it should not be dangerous to use! This bug implies a data loss when a document is saved in Word 6 format, which is, in my opinion, unacceptable. If you can't support it, just drop it altogether. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
