NOT Reproducible with "LibreOffice 3.3.1 RC2 – WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) German UI [OOO330m19 (build 8 / tag 3.3.1.2)]" agforsyth@gmail.com: Thank you for your report, but it's much to imprecise. For example: - what does "save as" mean? Form file menu or icon in toolbar? - "As .doc"? WORD98? WOR95? WORD6? May be hints on <http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport> can help to improve information? Additional please: - Attach screenshots with comments (you can add information using LibO DRAW and then attach your screenshot with comments as PDF) - Contribute a step by step instruction containing every key press and every mouse click how to reproduce your problem - add information -- what exactly is unexpected -- and why do you believe it's unexpected -- concerning your PC -- concerning your OS -- concerning your LibO version and localization -- how you launch LibO -- everything else crossing your mind after you read a.m. URL Can you please file Bug reports with status UNOCNFIRMED if your are not absolutely sure that the problem will be reproducible with information you can provide? Not reproduced with LO 3.3.1 RC2 Ubuntu 10.04 x86 while trying to save into every of available doc formats. 3.3.0 Release. Two computers, one running Windows 7, one running Windows Vista. Will retest with 3.3.1. Using any method of saving triggers the crash for me. By .doc I mean 97/2000/XP. @agforsyth: Anything new? I'm afraid this can't be fixed without much more efforts to find out the reason. As long as nobody can reproduce the bug, you will have to find yourself what the reason for the crash might be. Your graphic card, an Extension, anything else. Any suspect concerning characteristics that might be the same on your 2 computers and that might differ from other PC? Fixed by 3.3.1. Forgot to update. That's good news. Due to <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/page.cgi?id=fields.html#status> we should used FIXED only if a known fix has solved the problem; if the problem only disappeared without known reason, please use WORKSFORME. |
Created attachment 43688 [details] This document with crash LibreOffice if saved as a .doc I opened a file in .doc format previously saved with OpenOffice and attempted to save it again in the same format after editing, and LibreOffice crashed. It saves successfully in .odf Open Document Format, but attempting to then convert this file back to .doc crashes LibreOffice. Attached is a stripped down version of the file which will crash LibreOffice when saved as a .doc.
