To be clear this enhancement request seems to be requesting a macro to batch export "charts, formulas and other objects" that have been inserted into a Writer document. This can currently be done only rather crudely via File > Save As... > selecting File Type of "HTML Document (Writer)" which produces a series of GIFs. Status set to NEW. Version set to Inherited from OOo. Seems like Bug 51550? It was about problem with saving OLE objects, and the bug was closed as fixed because those objects are now not lost, but now they can be saved only as images. Also, from Bug 49229 we can see that equations are now properly saved (except layout issue related to wrap settings). Since this bug is rather old, and unlikely to draw any attention as per this general problem description, I suggest it be changed to "FILESAVE as DOCX saves embedded OLE objects as pictures", so that development can continue here. Things are really changed since posting of the original report. I would say that conversion of formulas is nearly excellent, but for charts and drawings the easiest way would be to have original chart or drawing stored and pictures visible in the doc or docx version of the document. Original would be good, if the document is opened and edited in the libreoffice. It could be also batch conversion macro to run by user. |
