Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 74866
Recorded changes break format of text body style
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:22:11 UTC
I have a document created with the "text body" style in Writer. I have set Edit/Changes/Record but not show. Saving to Text document ( .odt ) format there are no problems. If I use MS Word ( .doc ) format to save then the document becomes incorrectly formatted as follows. Suppose I enter the text AA ( nl ) BB into the document. This produces AA BB If I now enter two more line breaks between AA and BB and save the document I see, correctly AA BB If I now delete the line breaks, save again and close the document I would expect to see my original contents. However, when I open the document again the line breaks are still present. This fault does not appear to be completely consistently displayed. Turning the change recording on and off within a session appears to make the fault more likely to occur. Note that this is not a problem if the "Default" style is used with .doc format or if .odt format is used with any of the styles I have used.
MRU->HBRINKM: see the attached test cases. Open test.doc, delete the two paragraph breaks between AA and BB, save document, reopen -> one break has reappeared (see also test.doc).

I have now reproduced this fault in OOo 3.0 m21.
