Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 126231
Cannot preview odt file using Win 8.1 file explorer preview pane

Created attachment 84637 [details] This is the file after opening with OO 4.1.1 which cannot be previewed in Windows 8.1 File Explorer peview pane. Open an odt file from an earlier (likely 3.4.1) version of OO. The original file can be previewed in the 8.1 file explorer preview pane but the file saved from OO 4.1.1 (with no editing) cannot be previewed in file explorer preview pane - yields message "The file cannot be previewed".
I have determined that I can preview an odf document saved from OO 4.1.1 IF I change the ODF Format Version setting in the Options -> Load/Save -> General from the recommended (1.2 Extended) to 1.0/1.1
