WW8: OO Writer needs very long on import of The NET Bible
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:19:36 UTC
Please find attached an 8.5 MB Microsoft Word document which OO Writer hangs on importing. OO Writer hangs towards the end of the import, when having imported perhaps 90 percent. Perhaps this is due to a cross-reference table or something similar. I wanted to import solely for the sake of making a PDF file. I do not have Microsoft Office so I cannot myself check and see why OO Writer hung. The attached file should serve as an excellent test case for OO Writer: a huge Microsoft Word document, possibly with complex structures embedded. Sincerely, Mikael Lyngvig
Created attachment 28835 [details] The NET Bible from http://www.bible.org/default.asp?scid=3 (requires free registration to download).
The import does not loop, it "just" needs its time to process the file. On my machine, after a few minutes, the document opened in OO. It looks, that the Table of contents (which is about 30 pages long) in the end of the document needs a bit of time to be converted. We will have a look if the performance there can be improved a bit.
I tested, and now I want to ditch my comment: I checked with 2.0 (1.9.m122) German version WIN XP: [680m122(Build8941)], same result as per comments from 'mru' Wed Aug 17 01:37:15 -0700 2005.
MRU->FLR: it looks like there might be a performance issue when importing those large TOC's.
