Hi Bob,

it is about https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=120173
We had that problem already here. See my mail with subject "Problem with page break in export to rtf" from 2012-07-11.

Kind regards
Regina

Regina,
The issues with saving to RTF with the latest version of Open Office
have made it "Un-Useable" !
and it has worked so wonderfully on previous versions!

the page break codes no longer work
the assigned page numbers no longer work
apostrophe's and dashes now become oriental symbols

there may be other issues, but these are consistent
and make it impossible for me to use my notes

is there any chance we can get these codes repaired to what they have
been for many years?


Currently there are no intentions to change it back. Both methods give valid
RTF files. AOO (and LibreOffice) define a page break as property of a
paragraph. That is reflected in the RTF now. The old way corresponds to a
page break, which is created by inserting a special character.

I have no solution for you. Using old OpenOffice.org versions is not
recommended, because they do not contain all security fixes. Perhaps someone
else has an idea that helps you.


What is the issue? Is the issue with us reading old (incorrect) RTF
documents?  Or is the problem with a 3rd party application that
doesn't like our new (correct) RTF?

Is this something that the user could "fix", if needed, with a simple
sed command?

Kind regards
