RE: [libreoffice-users] Re: use of flat xml formats
The requirement that the office:document office:mimetype attribute be present and have a known MIME type has been a condition on ODF single-file XML documents since ODF 1.0/1.1. It is a schema validation error for the attribute to be missing. The admissible office:mimetype values, and the consistency requirements on the office:document-content element are a bit squishy. In ODF 1.2 there are strict provisions for what the agreement must be for a conforming ODF (text, spreadsheet, presentation, ...) document. Most ODF 1.0/1.1 documents satisfy the stricter requirements already. It is easy, but not OK, to miss this when hand-crafting or software- generating a flat xml representation of an ODF document. - Dennis -Original Message- From: e-letter [mailto:inp...@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, September 29, 2011 10:47 To: users@global.libreoffice.org Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: use of flat xml formats On 28/09/2011, NoOp gl...@sbcglobal.net wrote: I use Ubuntu I simply right-clicked the file in Nautilus selected LO Calc as the option to open.

I was also looking for a flat file importer. Currently LibreOffice and OpenOffice want to open such a .fodt (or .xml) file as text rather than an pure ODF file. I suspect it's a Windows version issue. I can easily open .fodt, .fods in linux LO 3.3.4 3.4.3. Windows versions act (using the same test files) do as you suggest and only open as text. I am using Linux, however I found that the flat XML ODF files require an office:mimetype attribute to the office:document root-element. Not doing this will make LibreOffice (3.4.3) fail to open the document as ODF, but instead as plain text. So adding: office:mimetype=application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text did the trick for me ! -- -- dag wieers, d...@wieers.com, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- dagit linux solutions, i...@dagit.net, http://dagit.net/ [Any errors in spelling, tact or fact are transmission errors] -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
