A MS Word document with embedded picture object
I'm from Indonesia, currently trying to use LibreOffice in the office. Actually
I always use LibreOffice in my personal laptop and in this new quarter I'm
facing new office policy to migrate my office machine to GNU/Linux based
operating system (Ubuntu exactly). So, naturally I've to deal with many old MS
Office files.
In the first place there's no big problem apart from little formatting change
in Writer but one point I messed up: OLE object. So I'm unable to open embedded
object such as picture, plain text or Excel spreadsheet, etc in a Word OOXML
(.docx) document.
I've found a workaround: rename .docx file to .zip then extract it and search
for embedded file in a specific folder. Oh it's very frustrating to do that.
And I have to create same type of document with embedded object as icon in Word
OOXML format.
But whenever I opened the document in a Windows (*type version here*)
environment, every office including WPS Office and LibreOffice could execute
object as expected (double click on the object and then it would be opened by
correspondence program). This problem seems occurred in Ubuntu machine (or any
OS other than Windows may be?) proved by the absence of "Activate Contents"
context menu when right clicking on the object.
For testing purpose, I've created a new file by MS Word 2007.
The step to created such file is : Insert -> Object -> Create from file ->
Display as an icon then OK.
