Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 27345
changed case should be preserved on export to plain text
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:40:24 UTC
At present, words which have had their case changed in Writer, either by hand or by autocorrection, revert to their original case when exported to plain text format. This is silly. iF i HAVE made errors of case while typing, and then corrected them, I don't want them to reappear in exported documents. Since we can't export the character attribute, we should change the underlying character to reflect the writer's intention. The corresponding bug has been fixed for MS Word (see issue 17056) but export to ascii and html remain wrong. I will open a separate RFE for the HTML change on advice from mru.
This could be a useful enhancement for ASCII export. Every first letter of a word which is formatted with char attribute "Title" should be exported as Capital letter. This has also been implemented for Word export filter, because WW format does not support this cool feature...
