My first question is: Should this work with the current HWPF code and if not, does someone know a version of HWPF where saving the generated files in Word worked?
Unfortunately, the guy who wrote most of HWPF went to work for a company that has licensed the file format docs from Microsoft, before he got everything working. That does mean that some things don't work, and there's not really anyone around who knows enough about the word file format to be able to provide fixes.
My second question is: HWPF creates a Document Property record (DOP) of length 504 bytes whereas 500 would be the "documented" size. Does someone know whether that's intended or not? (I would guess it is a typo, but ... - See below)
Sounds like you know more about the word file format than most of us do. Don't suppose you fancy contributing some patches? :)
