Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 48511
WW8: Lose special hyperlink formatting when exporting
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:20:08 UTC
SUMMARY It would be a good upgrade if the hyperlinks formatting could be preserved when exporting to Microsoft Word doc format as it is currently preserved when exporting to RTF format EXAMPLE: Take a sxw file with hyperlinks (test.sxw at http://pascalv.freeshell.org/pub/20050501_OOo_Report/) Some Type 1 links have the automatic formatting of hyperlinks (blue and underlined). Some Type 2 links have a special formatting (example Bold, Black and *not* underlined). FIRST EXPORT: Save this test.sxw file as RTF format file test_from_OOo_to_RTF.rtf Open this new rtf file with Microsoft Word 2003 Results: Type 1 links are OK Type 2 links are OK ==> GOOD SECOND EXPORT: Save the test.sxw file as Microsoft Word XP doc format file test_from_OOo_to_doc_XP.doc Open this new doc file with Microsoft Word 2003 Results: Type 1 links are OK Type 2 links have become like Type 1 links ==> PROBLEM THIRD EXPORT: Open the test_from_OOo_to_RTF.rtf file with Microsoft Word 2003 Save as test_from_OOo_to_RTF_from_Word2003_to_doc.doc Results: Type 1 links are OK Type 2 links are OK ==> GOOD but need 2 exports for get doc file with preserved hyperlinks formatting ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION: Convince Recruiters to accept resumes in other format than Microsoft Word doc

MRU->FLR: there is a hyperlink which isn'T formatted like a typical hyperlink. This isn't preserved when exporting to WW8 format.

This problem also occurs when saving .ODT files with links to .DOC format. This poses a serious issue for those of us who want to source our resumes in an OO format but have to export to .doc format, as that's what Human Resources personnel tend to want.

I select format.character.hyperlink and try many options but I still can't get rid of the underlying hyperlink effect in my text. Is there no workaround?
Are you sure that your comment applies to this issue? Anyway, to remove the "hyperlink" attribute you have to select the complete text with the "hyperlink" attribute, open "Format-Character-Hyperlink" and delete the URL of the hyperlink in the dialog.
