Priority: medium
Bug ID: 57671
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: FILEOPEN: Opening Mac .DOC files
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Windows (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: Other
Whiteboard: BSA
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 3.6.4.2 rc
Component: Writer
Product: LibreOffice
Created attachment 70761

It's the latest file exhibiting the described result.
Problem description:
Steps to reproduce:
1. ....
2. ....
3. ....
Current behavior:
Expected behavior:
1. open file "mac.doc"
2. produces a short string (several lines) of gibberish assumed to be the
prelude to the full file, shortened because one gibber is the EOF to a PC.
Alternatively, it could be the MAC descriptor file that describes the text file
to the MAC (I just thought of that). Or, perhaps, that file is prefixed to the
delivered file.
3. I expected the text as produced by MSWORD or it's MAC equivalent.
While you are dismissing my complaint, I'll explore the alternate with my
source.
In general, this program works reasonably well. I am moving to the open version
from open office at my son's suggestion, and suffering from transplant shock. I
believe I was annoyed at a couple of changes in gui or functionality that I'll
report when I run into them again.
Thanks for your interest.
