Summary: Cannot merge image into frame in Writer with Avimark
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Windows (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: unspecified
Component: Writer
Product: LibreOffice
I am a veterinarian, and I use a veterinary program called Avimark
(www.avimark.net). It is the most popular veterinary management program in the
world, with some 10,000 active hospitals. Documents can be managed either with
MSWord or "OpenOffice" (it works fine with LibreOffice, and works with LO 4.0).
There is a BIG problem which prevents more of us from using LO.
Avimark uses what it calls "merge words" to accomplish this, and the
instructions are in this document:
http://www.avimark.net/images/stories/documents/Users_%20Manual/Chapter%2023.pdf
In MSWord, a user can make a document with a text box, convert that text box to
a frame (in order to keep the image from becoming larger than the frame, and
merge an image from a variable file into the frame. In LO, when I try that, I
get the following error:
com.sun.star.task.ErrorCodeIOException:.
A similar problem occurs when the user tries to merge any (not just an image)
"merge word" into a table.
I greatly appreciate the FOSS community and love the work that the LO
programmers have done, but I have been reporting this to OpenOffice since OOo
1, and haven't gotten anyone who is willing to work with this. Is there
something I can do or donate to get this issue resolved?
Thanks for any consideration you might give this matter.
