xx.doc - original content before save-as in Unified Office Format
tested with LibO 4.1.4.2 under Win7 64bit your test .uot document looks abnormal and matches your description, however I'm not able to reproduce your issue from scratch... if I load the .doc test document and try to save it as .uot, the resulting file can be reopened with no issues in LibO. maybe a Linux specific issue? anyway I suggest to upgrade to 4.1.4.2 and tell us if bug is still present. Hmm, maybe it is Linux-specific. I tried LO 4.2.0.1 and the problem is the same. I can confirm that it's Linux specific bug. A file created using the Linux version can't be opened even with the Windows version. But a file created using the Windows version can be opened even with the Linux version. So it's a bug in the saving procedure, not in opening. Tested with 4.1.4 under Ubuntu 13.10 and Windows 7. The test document is a new document with just "Hello World". nice job Maxim not it would be interesting to test Linux older LibO version to identify if the bug is a new regression or an old issue LO 3.6.7.2 has the bug, so at least it isn't new in the 4.x series. Seems like it's not Linux specific after all. I've compared the output from Win\Linux versions, and the settings of each version, and came to a conclusion that it depend on measurement unit that was used when saving (Tools->Options...->LibreOffice Writer->General->Measurement unit). When it set to Inch, the bug reproducible under Windows too, and when set to Centimeter it works under Linux too. (Initially I had Inch under Linux and Centimeter under Windows, due to different locale settings.) @Jim: Can you also confirm that it works after setting to Centimeter? (Also I changed the version to oldest known.) good catch maxim, the inches thing is what trigger the bug very old releases. reproducible at least in LibO 3.3.3 (but I suspect it has been there from 3.3.0) the .uot file is not really empty... it's just it's page size which is turned microscopic (0.2 x 0.2 inches) so you cannot see anything. in LibO 3.3.3 you are able to temporarily restore normal page size with "Format/Page/Page/Height & Width) but when you close and reload, the page turn back to microcopic size in LibO 4.1.4 if you load the microscopic .uot and hit "Format/Page" there is a crash. (In reply to comment #8) > ... > in LibO 4.1.4 if you load the microscopic .uot and hit "Format/Page" there > is a crash. no "Format/Page" crash in 3.6.7 "Format/Page" crash presenti already in 4.0.4 not sure if I should file a separate bug report for this added Writer expert to CC list. @Micheal Stahl most useful comments for you are Comment 0, Comment 7 and Comment 8 microscopic page loading and format page crash still present in 4.2.5.2 and 4.4.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: b9dca968c6fd0ab5ca140c65b0e54d153cd34986 TinderBox: Win-x86@42, Branch:master, Time: 2014-07-18_22:51:20 |

Created attachment 91501 [details] xx.uot - file which when opened you can't see any content Problem description: If a text document is saved in Unified Office Format (.uot), then libreoffice can not open the resulting file; or rather it opens it but displays no text at all. Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a writer document with a few words of text (or use the attached demo) 2. File->Save As -> Unified Office Format 3. File->Exit 4. lowrite <the create file.uot> Current behavior: A solidly-gray pane appears with rulers, but no document content Expected behavior: Content of the document would be accessible. Operating System: Ubuntu Version: 4.1.3.2 release
