Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 95415
Certain graphic makes OO hang on import
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:44:35 UTC
While importing MS word documents which have wmf images(cliparts i think) in them, and if the wmf image is very big (say 2.5 MB), Open Office seems to hang (i.e take very very long time to import or fails). This can be easily replicated by either trying to open the attached document in swriter, or by importing it via API (in java: loadComponentFromURL(...) ). The last image in the attached document is a large wmf (> 2.5 MB).
Created attachment 57436 [details] Sample document to replicate this issue.
I can confirm the hang for "DocWithALargeWMF.doc" with "Ooo 3.0.0 RC3 Multilingual version German UI WIN XP: [OOO300m8 (Build9357)]". MS WORD viewer opens the sample file without problem. No Idea whether the images really are the problem.
Modified subcomponent. Also a problem with 2.4.1 and 1.4
This is a graphic filter issue; pasting the graphic from page 5 into an empty ppt document will also end in the loop.
Created attachment 57500 [details] Document which only contains the graphic in question
Created attachment 58911 [details] A simple PowerPoint document that hangs on load in OpenOffice 3 (Fedora 10 x86_64)
I can confirm the hang for "DocWithALargeWMF.doc", "95415.ppt", and "graphic-hangs.ppt" on OO.o 3.0.0, but OO.o 2.4.1 can open the 3 files without problem. OS: Ubuntu 8.04
