Description Kovács Viktor 2020-07-27 17:52:12 UTC
Description:
G Adi user wrote to libreoffice's mailing list, that lost every text saved docx format after 50+ pages. I try open that document, not only text disappeared, it fails to open. 

Steps to Reproduce:
Generate random text more than 50 pages for testing.
Save it in docx.
Try to open it.

Actual Results:
Text lost, open the file is failed.

Expected Results:
Full text sould be saved and then opened correctly.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
G Adi wrote, required autosave intervall set to few seconds.
Because of different speed of HDD, SSD and  Cloud, it maybe help set autosave period option several minutes downto several seconds.
In my opinion, it need to check, whether it has memory overloading, too.

An example file would be helpful (or a part of the file which is left) A random generate text more than 50 pages is rather unspecific. I saved documents with more pages to docx today.

The result file after losing data

This the result file after the crash.
I did not ask G Adrian for his full text, because it lost, and if he start again, it will be his disertation.

I think about random text choose approximatelly 50 English word, and emulate keyboard typing these words.Wtrite 50+ page by hand is not an easy thing.

Hello Kovács Viktor,
Could you please the original file as an ODT file before saving it to DOCX ?

I just dropped an e-mail to "g adi" (Adrian) and he answered that unfortunately didn't find  his docs in odt format everywhere. 
I know, it isn't enough for set this bug as confirmed.
This bug must be close, I think.
