Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 14894
Save as Word document loses formatting with picture
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:26:03 UTC
Opened a Word 2002 document with a picture on the first line. Edited the document, first line untouched. Everything OK. Saved as Word 97/2000/XP document. Still OK. Closed OOo, reopened next day and reopened document. First line has lost all formatting - instead of Arial 48pt I get Times New Roman 11pt - but still has picture. Opened in Word 2002: TNR 11pt and no picture. Problem disappears when I delete the picture.
Trying to attach the faulty Word document. But I don't know how to specify the MIME type, required by Issuezilla, and there is no documentation on this side giving MIME types. Please advise.
Attach OpenOffice or Word documents as "binary file" mime type.
Created attachment 6452 [details] Faulty Word document produced by OOo
reassigned to mru
I cannot reproduce it at 1.1 Rc4 on win xp it look same when I open at MS Office XP and OO 1.1 Rc4 . can you explain how to test this doc so we can get your problem ?
The attached document is faulty because the words "Peter's Page" should be Arial 48pt. Try the following, which I just did: Open the document in OOo 1.1 rc4. Change the font of the words "Peter's Page" to Arial 48pt. Save the document. Open in Word 2002. The words are in Times New Roman 11pt, which is the Normal style. Close OOo and restart. Open the document in OOo. Again the words are in TNR 11pt. OOo is not saving the font and size change. This does not happen to lines other than the first and does not happen if I delete the picture.
I can reproduce this on 1.1 Rc4 Win Xp. yes the font change didnt take any effect
MRU->CMC: Problem with disappearing graphic couldn't be reproduced. But text formatting: select the first line, change font size ti 48pt, save as WW8, reopen -> font is back to 11pt.
Indeed, its an artifact caused by the graphic being anchored to that paragraph which forces the export to map the graphic into a graphic anchor character on export, which throws the export of properties applied to the complete paragraph to be clipped. i.e. the export of properties hardcoded to the entire paragraph end up only on the trailing (normally invisible) paragraph end mark in word. :-(, should be fixable.
Fixed for 2.0 in killarneyfilterteam13
Reopen to reassign
cmc->mru: Working in killarneyfilterteam13
added oooqa
checked fix with CWS filter13.
Verified. Fix will be included in OO 2.0
Reopened.
MRU->MMAHER: this problem still occurs (680m33). Please have a look, why this fix hasn't been integrated into master. Thanks!
Because of a shortage of resources we have to retarget this issue to OOo later.
mmaher->flr: Your's methinks
I have same problem with the picture in the heading of MSWORD-page. I had picture with the town-logo, bud when I opened file in the OpenOffice I had page with picture. I saved it as document 97/2000/XP and then I reopened it in OpenOffice. The picture has zerro-size. Picture object exist bud it has a zero-size.

Failed for me on version 3.4.1. Work around found: Insert picture, save as *.odt file, and then close Writer. Open *.odt file and then save as *.doc. Close Writer and now open *.doc file and it's OK. Seems to be OK for ever after.
Reset assigne to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org".
