The ppt file
set to new I can reproduce the bug. The Formulas are created with the 'Equation Editor'. After the PPT-import you see empty graphic frames. Please have a look. The problem is the filter detection of Pict files in Mircosoft Office documents having version 1. . "According to the OpenOffice.org roadmap (http://tools.openoffice.org/releases) this issue was retargeted to OOo Later." Another test case is http://neon.mems.cmu.edu/rollett/27750/17Texture-intro.ppt, Google claims that this is created with PowerPoint 97. (Looking at http://development.openoffice.org/releases/ I can't find a place which makes clear that this is/is not part of the 2.0 roadmap. At least the term "filter detection" seems to indicate that this is not a terribly complicated issue. I really hope that it will be fixed within one year - over two years after it was initially reported. - Now I need to find a PP to open that file ...) Maybe related issue 34808. Is there the chance that this will be fixed in 2.4? I think it is not possible to fix this issue for 2.4, but if you want to have documents created with a MacOS PowerPoint to open properly in OOo, load & resave it with a Windows PowerPoint version, this takes care that Mac Picts are converted into WMF graphics, which can better be loaded with OOo. |
