Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 78540
RTF: allow different syntax for linked pictures
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:22:42 UTC
At the moment OOo can read linked (included) pictures in RTF documents, if the pathseparator is "\\" (escaped backslash). Word uses either a simple slash (URI syntax "/") or a double escaped backslash ("\\\\"). As third party software usually writes those formats, OOo should be enabled to read all theses different styles of path separators. (see attached document for example of all three styles)
Created attachment 45968 [details] Example with different styles
fixed typos
Confirmed this behaviour in OO 2.2 on Windows XP
MRU->HBRINKM: this could be a useful enhancement for RTF filter for the future.
