Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:42:49 UTC
Unrecoverable corrupted ODT file after pasting some content from Word 2000. Here is how to reproduce the bug the easy way : 1) copy from MS Word some text as well as some equations 2) In OOo, past it as RTF 3) save ODT file, close openoffice. 4) Load the ODT file : it is corrupted and there is no indication of where in the xml the bug is. File is unrecoverable. IMPORTANT : This does NOT affect OpenOffice 2.1 !
Created attachment 44708 [details] Copy from this sample word file
Created attachment 44709 [details] If you past the word .doc content in OOo 2.2 as RTF and save, you end up with this un-recoverable file
Couldn't reproduce with own new created document.
Hello, can you open attached file plop.odt with openoffice 2.2 ? I ran the test on both windows and linux and I could not load it. I reproduced the procedure on 2 systems : - Windows XP + Word 2000 + OpenOffice 2.2 - Windows 2000 + Word 2000 + OpenOffice 2.2 Both of them resulted in ODT files that OOo 2.2 was not able to open. I insist on the fact that OOo 2.1 CAN open such a file.
Strange... that file (plop.doc) doesn't open, however I can confirm this bug because I copied the sample word file, pasted as RTF in a brand new ODT file, and it opens perfectlyin OOo 2.2 in Windows XP.

Sorry!! I meant I CAN'T CONFIRM the bug!
So, not reproducible anymore.
closed
Can repro with 2.2 and 2.3m211. Reopening.
Confirming with 2.2 and 2.3m211 on WinXP.
Found it out now... happens ONLY when using Word 2000 as source. Select all the text in Word 2000, copy to clipboard, paste as RTF in Writer, save as odt -> "Error reading file" when reopening.

Ready for QA.
Verified fix in CWS sw8u10bf01.
Checked fix in OO 2.4 dev build 680m241.
