Description Jean-Baptiste Faure 2012-03-24 11:10:08 UTC
Created attachment 58982 [details]
RTF file with mailing fields

When opening the attached RTF file LO 3.3.4 recognize some fields as mailing fields: if you double-click on such kind of field, LO opens a dialog which allow to map these fields on database recorder.
When opening the same file with LO 3.5.x nothing happens when you double-click on these fields.

Saving the RTF file as ODF file in LO 3.3.4, does not allow to preserve the mailing fields

Best regards. JBF

The bugdoc is a document used as template by French administration.

Miklos: I guess this one is for you. Maybe it is related to bug 42109.
Please, feel free to reassign if you can't handle this bug.

since i fixed writerfilter's field parameter import i was looking for RTF field import bugs, and this is pretty much the only one?

required a bit of additional work, but now it's working like in the old RTF filter; however have no idea how to create Database fields that
actually _work_ with the info that's in the RTF field.

Migrating Whiteboard tags to Keywords: (filter:rtf)
Replace rtf_filter -> filter:rtf.
