--- Comment #8 from Roman Eisele <[email protected]> 2012-09-05 15:19:12 UTC --- At least we can try to bring some light into issue (3), the file size problem. First I do some tests with LibreOffice 3.5.6.2 (German langpack installed, on Mac OS X 10.6.8 Intel): a) If I "Save as" the .xlsx file directly as another .xlsx file, the new .xlsx file is still 9.2 MB in size. b) If I save the file in .ods format, the resulting file is only 319 KB in size; if I save the .ods file back to .xlsx format, the file is again 9,2 MB in size. c) If I save the file in .xls (traditional) format, the file becomes 62.5 MB (!) in size, a clear sign of corruption. These observations, especially (b), confirm that issue (1) is due to some problem with FILESAVE in .xls/.xslx format, and that at least this issue is easily [REPRODUCIBLE]. But there are good news especially about this problem: if I repeat these tests with LibreOffice 3.6.1.2 (Build ID: e29a214) on the same machine, my results are different! a) If I "Save as" the .xlsx file directly as another .xlsx file, the new .xlsx file is only 655 KB in size. b) If I save the file in .ods format, the resulting file is only 319 KB in size; if I save the .ods file back to .xlsx format, the file is only 655 KB in size. c) If I save the file in .xls (traditional) format, the file becomes 1.8 MB in size, which is big, but seems much more reasonable than before. These results indicate that the bug with FILESAVE in .xls/.xslx format, while still reproducible with LibreOffice 3.5.6.2, is FIXED in LibO 3.6.1.2. -> So we can “close” issue (3) from comment #7, and only need to deal with issues (1) and (2). @ Boudry: Could you please try yourself to download LibreOffice 3.6.1, open and "Save as" your .xlsx file, to confirm that you see the same fix of the file size problem, and to check if all data is still there (you will see that much more easily than me)? If you don’t want to switch to LibreOffice 3.6 for now, I can send you the "fixed" .xlsx file and just ask you to check it if all data is still there. Either of these options would be very helpful.
