Oops, The documents Growing Very crazy. 4 pages of OOo doc, when save as Doc. Opened in MS Word XP, become more than 1000 pages and growingggg (not only 44 page). It is like Magic. Test using OOO 1.1.1a. I hope this worthed for OOo 1.1.1
I confirm problem with 1.1.0 German version WIN98SE: 645m19(Build8693) The problem disappeared after I deleted the table row with text "Rotated Bold" and saved as ".doc" again. The problem remains if I only set rotation to "0°" for both texts. Rainer
No, in OOo 1.1 I didnt have this problem. I save using OOo 1.1 and can open in word correctly. but using OOo 1.1.1a it is bugs, word opened as 2000+ pages. so, it is regression. Regression need to be considered for OOo 1.1.1
JA->MRU: Hi Michael, please have a look at this issue. Reassigned to you.

Hi utomo, funny thing that you did not have that problem with 1.1. My suspect is, that the epedimic flood of 1.1.1a bugs you found might be, that your (additionally?) installed 1.1.1a does not have all useful preferences selections of your 1.1 installation. Unfortunately I do not have any good Idea how to check that in a systematic way. From where did you get your 1.1.1a? I would like to test with the same version like you did. Rainer
utomo > rainer: I didnt remember anymore where I download it, I think from ibbiblio. but I didnt think my installer have rpoblem. I think the problems is there but we didnt check it with systematic thing/more intens, so we didnt find it. just for info, that 100 issue I found/create, I found in about 10% of my documents in my computer. how to test, tr to look at my posting in discuss list. http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=discuss&msgNo=32737 I think you better to check the issue which I reported using your own OOo, so if it is not corect we can try to search the problem. I will try to downlod OOo 1.1.1a from another source and give some trial only. if same I will not continue it. I hope we can get more better OOo 1.1.1, including delay the release if necessary.

This only happens when you use Writer's character rotation" feature. Word does not support this directly (only for whole table cells and sections). So Writer has to workaround this when exporting to WW format. This does not work in this case. Has already been fixed in current OO 2.0 build. The next OOo 680 snapshot should also have the fix.
Will also work better with OO 1.1.1.
