Description Sadi 2011-11-18 07:19:11 UTC

It seems LibreOffice 3.4.3 converts files from *.doc to *.odt format with too many unnecessary tags (which create problems in Computer-Assisted Translation Tools like OmegaT) although there is no such problem in LibreOffice 3.3.2 or when the file is first converted from *.doc to *.docx format in MS Word 2007 and then from *.docx to *.odt format in LibreOffice 3.4.3.

The problem reported persists in Libre Offive 3.4.5 Beta as can be seen in the screenshot of the file opened in OmegaT.

Comment 8 Sadi 2012-01-12 01:26:51 UTC

Correction: I meant Libre Office 3.5.0 Beta 2...
