When opening the file with word2000, 2003 or 2010 the text is not highlighted but has a colored background. This behaviour is independent of the source of the highlightening (imported from Word or highlighted in Libreoffice or Openoffice). However, when opened in Libreoffice/Openoffice the text is recognized correct as highlighted text and not as background. This behaviour is included in LibO 3.4 RC1 Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/df- libreoffice/+bug/295014/comments/3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2011-06-13T10:25:28+00:00 Hirt-o wrote: LibO 3.3RC1 does not fix this issue Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/df- libreoffice/+bug/295014/comments/4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2011-07-01T06:34:24+00:00 Hirt-o wrote: Version 3.3.3 and 3.4.1RC3 still show this bug.

Throw it in ***"... And so on... The bug happens not only when you export as DOC, but also when you export as DOCX and then edit it in Office 2007 or 2010... Additional info: There are two buttons on the toolbar in Word 2010 – one changes highlight color and the other changes text background color (Word2003 has only one of those) 1. Make a document in LibreOffice that consists of 3+ paraghraph 2. Highlight ENTIRE central paragraph yellow 3. Save as DOC or DOCX 4. Open in Office 2007-2010 5. Enable display hidden characters (!) 6. Try to remove highlighting (background color) a) Select the entire paragraph with the paragraph sign in the end. Change text background option using the control on the panel. Doesn't work. b) Select the entire paragraph with the paragraph sign in the end. ... Does work. Anyway, most people, when they see highlighted text in MS Word, assume it is "highlighted text", not "text background"... The second option is hidden deep in MS Word 2007-2010 and nonexistent in MS Word prior 2003...

I did found a rtf + grep hack to solve the problem, but it's still a bad hack. More details are in: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/645269 So yes, please solve this. It is a major interoperability problem.

The sequence, highlighted by MS, which works (you can remove the highlight) is like that: {\rtlch\fcs1 \af37 \ltrch\fcs0 \lang1033\langfe1025\highlight7\langnp1033\insrsid5522236\charrsid3873419 \hich\af37\dbch\af37\loch\f37 This text has been highlighted with Microsoft Word 2007} The sequence that you cannot modify is this one: {\rtlch\fcs1 \af37 \ltrch\fcs0 \lang1033\langfe1025\chshdng0\chcfpat0\chcbpat7\langnp1033\insrsid5522236 \hich\af37\dbch\af37\loch\f37 This text has been modified and highlighted with O\hich\af37\dbch\af37\loch\f37 penoffice (version 1:3.2.0-7ubuntu4.1, Ubuntu Linux 10.04 up-to-date). } Note that if I change "\chshdng0\chcfpat0\chcbpat7" to "\highlight7" in the rtf file, then MS Word can edit it correctly. The command: sed 's/\\chcbpat/\\highlight/g' < in.rtf > out.rtf makes a editable file. Saved my day.
