Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 6904
Problems with importing frame from MS Word document.
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:41:16 UTC
When opening MS Word template document I met these problems: 1. OO doesn't display frame with picture and text in Document header. 2. In the lower right corner has to be field, that displays path and file name, but OO instead of such field inserts field, which displays just file name and I must manually change field type. 3. In MS Word document there are macros, which play the same role as placeholders in OO - if I click it in the document - it is selected and the text can be inserted in that place. But when I open this document with OO and click on macro fields, they are not selected. Or perhaps I need to register all problems as independent bugs? The .dot file and .bmp file (how it has to look in MS Word) are attached.
Created attachment 2477 [details] .bmp file. How document has to look like (in MS Word)
Created attachment 2478 [details] MS Word document, which is opened incorrectly by OO
Frederic Nicot 9/11/02 Duplicated bug on a PC running Win 2000 5.00.2195 SP3 with the given attachment file and other MS word template files. OO 1.0.1
Egle, thanks for posting this issue. Yes, please split up this report into separate issues. One problem per issue is the requirement. Please see issue 3988 for the header problem. OOo can only handle graphic objects inside the header. Thank you for using and supporting OOo. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 3988 ***
I've split this bug - issue 7887 is registered for problem 2. issue 7888 is registered for problem 3. But I don't know what to do with 1 problem, should I add comment to issues 3988 and attach files to it or should I register new bug. besides - what do you mean by saying - OOo can only handle graphic objects inside the header - in the template, I've attached, a simple National Emblem is inside header (in raster format) Can't it be imported to OOo ?
I've reopened this bug as I'm not sure it really a dublicate of the bug 3988. Sorry if I'm doing a misstake. In my last comment I asked a question. It would be very good if you could answer, then I would know what I have to do with the object in header problem - should I register a new bug, etc.. Thank you.
cmc->egle: You're dead right. Its drawing objects that are problematic in headers and footers, e.g. polygons and other shapes, straightforward graphics are ok. And this document's graphic is ok in my developer ver of SRX644m.
cmc->mru: Frame containing graphic working ok in SRX644m
reassign to qa.
Not only the 644 build, also the OpenOffice 643C build has the fix. Graphic can now be imported properly.

Really Closed now ;-)
