Hi again, further to my note on the beta version, try just modifying the defective link to : http://members.hellug.gr/sng/ancientgreekoxt/files/AncientGreek-1.5.5.oxt This gives an apparently good download. (note the last part of the link is .1.5.5.oxt and not .1.5.54.oxt - looks like

Yes, I see the same thing. But if you follow the links back you get to : http://members.hellug.gr/sng/ancientgreekoxt/index.html from where you can download the latest beta version, 1.6.beta4.1. This installs ok in LO Writer 5.1.4.2 but I have no use for it so can't comment on how it works.

I wonder if anyone on the list can provide any clues as to why a file is badly formed ? The file concerned is an export from another application (Scrivener) which provides the option to export as an open document odt. The test file comprises 2 paragraphs of text followed by a third paragraph
