Summary: FORMCONTROLS: Form text fields in RTF file format
created with MS Word are lost after saving
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Windows (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: Other
Whiteboard: BSA
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 3.6.3.2 release
Component: Writer
Product: LibreOffice
Created attachment 70810

A document created with MS Word with a single field with default text as TEST
and help text as <?TEST?>. Opening in LibreOffice and saving causes the field
to be removed.
Problem description:
I can create a RTF document with MS Word (2010), with a legacy text form field
(accessed through the developer toolbar -> controls -> legacy tools -> text
form field), and save it as RTF format. When I open this document in
LibreOffice, this field doesn't seem to persist (based on not being able to
access the field properties and the field being lost are saving the document in
LibreOffice).
Is there a good way to handle RTF documents with form text fields? (I also
tried creating a document in LibreOffice with a form formatted field, but it
also doesnt persist after saving as RTF).
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create RTF document in MS Word with a legacy text form field
2. Open document in LibreOffice
3. Make some changes
3. Save document
Current behavior:
Form text field is lost after saving the document in LibreOffice
Expected behavior:
The form field should persist after saving in LibreOffice. Ideally, the ability
to create these fields in a document from LibreOffice.
Operating System: Windows 7
