Congratulations to all.
I believe that a solid open file format is extremely important.
Am I correct to assume that ODF 1.2 is backward compatible? I.e. an old
application will still be able to open a ODF 1.2 document?
Dennis, one curiosity since you were one of the editors: I assume you
Hi :)

All releases of LibreOffice have used the 1.2 (Extended) by default. I think

Hi,
This is the first public announcement of a new project I started to create
an ODF backend for AsciiDoc. For those who don't know AsciiDoc, AsciiDoc
is a lightweight markup language that is designed to map to DocBook
semantics, and as such, ideal for creating consistent documentation,

Yes. Of course, some content (from the new standard) may be wrong.

Well, many products have been producing documents identified as ODF 1.2 for
some time. There are changes that came in during 2010 that, as far as I can
tell, are not consistently handled yet. And the OpenFormula specification, a
major part of ODF 1.2, will take some time to be fully
Whether a down-level software version will even accept an ODF 1.2 document as
if it is a down-level document and do the best it can is not something the ODF
specifications address. It depends on the down-level product.
It probably works with OpenOffice.org versions, but maybe not with other
Q: Am I correct to assume that ODF 1.2 is backward compatible? I.e. an old
application will still be able to open a ODF 1.2 document?
A: It depends. There are provisions in ODF 1.2 that, if exercised in an ODF
1.2, make it unlikely that an ODF 1.1 consumer could handle it properly. Also,

Is there an overview of the changes to the standard between v1.1 and v1.2 ?
It might be possible to have both an odt11 and odt12 backend with odt12
inheriting the bulk of odt11 and implementing just the differences.
There are some Appendices in Part 1 and Part 3 that describe changes since
A while back, Microsoft offered a warranty with regard to ODF 1.2 support. I
believe it is contingent on ISO standardization occurring. There is also an
announcement that Microsoft would provide information on its ODF 1.2 support on
the occasion of a Plugfest in Brussels this coming April.
Dennis, thank you for all the answers.
Sincerely, I'm surprised that you used Writer to edit a 1200 pages document.
I had to submit a 51 page report in Word and it was an absolute nightmare...
(BTW opening the same document in LO 3.4.3 shows how far cross-compatibility
still is :) )

Pedro. I agree that it would be more useful to have the choice of ODF version
be available in the Save As ... dialog. There could still be a default, of
course, and there are nice ways to reflect that in the Save As ... also.
That is not about the ODF specification of course.
It sounds like a

All,
Has anyone been able to get PowerPoint´s to display correctly in LibreOffice
Impress? I am having a lot of trouble with .ppt and .pptx presentations, as
they simply do not display well in LibreOffice. The background, the text,
the formatting, is all messed up and distorted.
Any assistance
