This may be related: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103791

[Feature request]
* Context
Org-mode exists in Emacs (https://orgmode.org/) to author documents in many ways. It makes use of plain text to render and produce rich documents. Pandoc can convert from ODT to Org (http://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html). Many people are not comfortable with Emacs and prefer to use LibreOffice.

* Current behaviour
Currently, there is no way to save a document from LibreOffice in Org format. One needs to use Pandoc or something similar.

* Desired behaviour
It would be nice if LibreOffice could produce documents directly to Org (with tables, media and tables), and possibly import Org as well (with bibliographic and intertext references, tables and pictures).

* Further information
There are tools which are used to convert from LaTeX (Org can render LaTeX natively) to MathML (MathToWeb, LaTeXML, Pandoc).

Thank you!

I agree, it is the same enhancement request as bug 103791.

Best regards. JBF

I'm sorry, but that other report requests a change of GUI. What I suggest is an exporting or importing feature. I still remember that it was not always possible to export to PDF in LibreOffice, and now even your worst competition copied your lead on this. Would you reconsider, or at least remove the duplicate tag? Thanks!

You can't confirm your own bugs. Moving it back to UNCONFIRMED until someone
else confirms it.

Sounds like it would be in scope -> NEW
