We will extend the filter dialog with a preview, like in Calc where you always can see how the first few rows will look with the current settings. We will have a text engine in that dialog that displays the first few thousand characters of the document using the current settings. This will enable us to test the text in a sandbox. Even if the user presses OK though he just sees garbage, we can still run a detection over the previewed text and reject it in case it does not match our criteria. Once the text is in the Writer core it is close to impossible to handle all the problems that might appear deep inside the text formatting or the VCL text output caused by text garbage. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

It seems that the TextGuess is confused and OOo fails to recognize portions in the text. The result is unpredictable, and basically it is impossible to format such text at all. IMHO the only way to prevent that is detecting the error as early as possible and discard this document. If it isn't possible before the text is inserted, we need a health check or something similar that can find out fast and easily if the text can be formatted at all. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

The question is, how to deal with it? How can we detect if something is text or just a bunch of bytes, especially if you don't know the encoding. Some options: - repeat type detection after the user has entered an encoding and then reject all files that still contain zero bytes or have lines with more than n characters - try a language guessing and reject all files that can't be detected; this way files could become rejected just because we don't check for their language, though we check for a lot of them - the assertions show us that at least deep below, in the text formatter, we detect that something is wrong, so at least here we could stop. But it seems that this is very late (insertion already done) and it might be tricky to recover from the detected error without creating new problems. The first two options have the advantage that they try to reject files before they are actually inserted So far I think the first option is the best one to start with. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Trying to avoid passing bad data to code that would crash on it is an band- aid approach. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
