Hello amy2008, I do not understand, what you mean with <quote> Apply style error when copying characters (not only chinese simplified characters but also other languese like English) from Impress and pasting to Writer </quote> ... :( Would you be so kind to elaborate it a bit? Did you first entered text in a text box in Impress and then pasted in in Writer? If so: Have you copied the text box or the text inside? Which OS (and which architecture) did you use? Which version of OOo? Have you tried it with a newer version of OOo then 3.1 RC2? Does it occur there as well? Have fun Thomas.
Hi thakert, Amy2008 is in her vacation now. But I'd like to add some comments for this one. Input some text in the text box in impress, and copy the texts. Switch to writer document, and paste the texts. Move cursor into those texts, or select the texts, then you'll find some strange style name in the style listbox, as the picture shows. It looks like some German words with some question marks and a acronym in front. I'll check it in a latest version, and tell you the result later. I'm downloading. Best regards, Lihua
Hi thackert, I have just confirmed that OOo3.2RC1 has the same behaviour.
Oliver, please have a look and assign a suitable target
I confirm the defect for OOo 3.2RC1 FR under Ubuntu 8.04. Steps to reproduce : - open a new presentation - insert a text area and insert some text in it (eg "sample of text") ; the default font is Arial in my case, and default size is 18. - change the color of some part of the text (eg "ample of t") - select the whole text and copy it by ctrl+C - open a new text document in Writer, default font is DejaVu serif 12 - paste the text by ctrl+V - move the cursor before the letter p in "sample" and look at font name, in my case I see "Lohit Hindi"; I have Arial only for "sam" but not for "ext" at the end of the text.
Same problem when copying from writer to calc : - create a new text document and type some text, eg: example of text, with default font (Times New Roman 12) - change the part "mple of t" to bold - copy by ctrl+C the whole text "example of text" - open a new spreadsheet - select cell A1 (do not double-click on the cell) and paste by ctrl+V or click copy button ==> part "exa" is in Arial (default in Calc for me) and the rest "mple of text" is in Times New Roman OOo 3.2 RC1 (FR) under Ubuntu 8.04
->jbfaure: You're writing about the applied font but the initial problem of this issue is the strange style name ( "..LT..Untertitel" ) shown in the attached picture. Target set to 3.x
->os: You're right but, I do no know why, I supposed both behaviours have the same root cause. I can file another issue if you think it is better. Regards. JBF
Impress exports the selection to the clipboard as RTF which uses such style names. Reassigned to CL
Hello amy2008, redflagzhulihua, *, sorry for the delay, but was too busy since last December, sorry ... :( Now I can confirm your observation with the Germanophone version of OOo under Debian SID AMD64 ... :( The language switched - in my case - from "Arial Narrow" to "Text Page Master~LT~Untertitel". Only the fontsize stays the same ... As os has explained it in the last comment, why this happens, I hope he will be able to fix it :) HTH Thomas.
Hi The initial issue about style error still persists in 3.3 RC10 (which is actually final 3.3). Copy text in Impress and paste it in Writer. The style name of the pasted text will show the original style name plus some German text (eg: Default~LT~Untertitel), as in amy2008's screenshot. I tried with 3.3 RC10 (Catalan) in WinXP 32-bit, Win7 32-bit, Ubuntu 10.4 32-bit, MacOs PPC. Same problem in all platforms.
