Priority: medium
Bug ID: 58949
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: FILEOPEN: DOCX-filter; DOC format formulas embedded in
OOXML (DOCX) file, don’t save and don’t edit
Severity: blocker
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: Other
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.0.0.0.beta2
Component: Writer
Product: LibreOffice

DOCX file
Description:
1. Open the attached file.
2. Try to edit formulas and you'll ascertain that it is impossible.
3. Save this file as ODT or Flat XML file.
4. Reloads the new file and you’ll see that old format’s formulas are lost.
History:
WinWord-2007 converts DOC file with formulas in DOCX (OOXML) format,
preserving such formulas as objects - images WMF format. These objects are
saved earlier versions of the program (for example OOo_3.1.1) as bitmaps. Then
was undertaken an attempt at reading and conversion WMF of objects as formulas.
LibreOffice_3.6.4 allows you to convert and save all objects (formulas
WinWord-2003), using The Workaround:
1. Open the attached file.
2. Save this file as FODT.
3. Reloads FODT file.
4. FODT file saves as ODT.
The method had a specific bug in OS Windows. A pop-up window shows the message
"Too many windows are opened" if Equation Editor has been installed as a
MS-Office’s component. But The Microsoft Office modified by The Control Panel
that removes and recovers Equation Editor easily and quickly.
The Workaround does not work now in LOdev_4.0.0.beta2. DOC-format’s formulas,
embedded in OOXML (DOCX) file as ‘img*.wmf’, don’t edit or save into ODT\FODT
files. The program can use The Workarounds II only:
1. Open the attached file.
2. Save this file as DOC.
3. Reloads DOC file.
4. DOC file saves as ODT.
Formulas of old format will be converted to a bitmap picture, as in
OOo_3.1.1_Writer.
Resume:
This is a regression, because error became common for all operating systems.
