orcmid <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #2 from orcmid <[email protected]> 2012-02-23 23:09:27 UTC --- This may be a legitimate question about why OO does not support the layout that the user creates in Writer. It is not about the literal preservation of tab stops and especially tab characters (which are not what ODF uses anyhow), but the preservation of the layout. It might not be possible to restore them as tabs when an HTML document is opened in Writer. I have my doubts about what the user sees happening in Firefox and Internet Explorer. Nevertheless, it would be interesting to see how other office productivity software manages the transition from desktop format to HTML and back, and the degree of layout presentation in HTML. I have confirmed that Microsoft Word preserves the layout produced using tabs and will round-trip the layoug document if re-opened in Word. Some may find the HTML that is used to accomplish that objectionable, but this user finds the result desirable. There may be confusion here between Writer and Writer (Web) behavior too. As usual, I believe it would be useful to request enough details to confirm whether there is a defect or an improvement issue that is appropriate as an issue here. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/ooo/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
