OK, I'm installing the libreoffice package then. ** Tags added: apport-collected precise running-unity ** Description changed: When I try to embed a pdf file, as an embedded document in libreoffice writer, it tries to import the pdf file as a text file, instead of just displaying a pdf icon that I can click to open. To reproduce the bug, 1- start libreoffice writer 3 2- select from the menu "Insert>Object>OLE Object..." 3- select the "Create from file" radio button 4- click the "Search..." button 5- select any pdf or other non plaintext, non libreoffice compatible, or binary document 6- click the "OK" button Expected behaviour : an icon representing your document should be inserted. Clicking on the icon should open the document using the appropriate program. Observed behaviour : an "ASCII Filter Options" dialog is displayed. Clicking OK in that dialog will insert a frame containing the text from the pdf file (as if you just cat the pdf file). - I am using Ubuntu linux v12.04 and libreoffice v3.5.4.2, but I think the - bug has always existed, as I had the same problem before with - openoffice. + I am using Ubuntu linux v12.04 and libreoffice v3.5.4.2, but I think the bug has always existed, as I had the same problem before with openoffice. + --- + ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu12 + Architecture: amd64 + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 + EcryptfsInUse: Yes + InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Release amd64 (20110427.1) + Package: libreoffice 1:3.5.4-0ubuntu1 + PackageArchitecture: amd64 + ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-29.46-generic 3.2.24 + Tags: precise running-unity + Uname: Linux 3.2.0-29-generic x86_64 + UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to precise on 2012-04-30 (99 days ago) + UserGroups: adm admin cdrom dialout lpadmin plugdev sambashare vboxusers -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1034370 Title: Cannot embed a file as an ole object To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1034370/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
