Description Pedro 2014-10-18 21:19:47 UTC 
Opening any PDF immediately crashes AOO 4.2 (tested with build AOO420m1(Build:9800)  -  Rev. 1631975) under Win XP Pro x86 SP3 and Win7 Pro x64 SP1

Action: open or drop any PDF on Start Center
What happens: AOO 4.2 crashes if PDF Import extension is not installed
Expected: AOO displays the ASCII filter options
Ideal: AOO displays a dialog informing the user that PDF Import needs to be installed with a link to the download page
Comment 1 Andrea Pescetti 2014-10-19 14:36:59 UTC 
I cannot reproduce the crash with r1631975 (own build, on Linux64).

What I did:
1) Open Writer
2) Write "Sample PDF file" and generate (File - Export as PDF) the file I will shortly attach
3) Reopen the same PDF from OpenOffice, without the PDF Import extension installed. I get the ASCII filter dialog.

Pedro: if you open the file i125766-minimal-pdf.pdf that I will shortly attach with the Windows build from the buildbot, do you still get the crash?

Yes, it crashes AOO 4.2 every time. It must be a Windows only bug...

No longer occurs in build AOO420m1(Build:9800)  -  Rev. 1851640
