Bug ID: 156466
Summary: FILESAVE DOC: Saved file made Word hang
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 24.2.0.0 alpha0+ Master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: rb.hensc...@t-online.de
I was told by an employee of Microsoft, that OpenOffice produces a file which
made Word hang. Because I know no better place, I report it here, so that our
developers can look, whether the problem exists in LibreOffice too. The problem
in the doc file was described to me as:
Word expects that every character of text in the document has some record of
character level formatting in plcbteChpx as detailed in the DOC file spec here:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/openspecs/office_file_formats/ms-doc/ccd7b486-7881-484c-a137-51170af7cc22
Unfortunately, the plcbteChpx ends a few characters shy of the end of the
document, leaving the final paragraph marker without any data, possibly the
section mark character as well.
