Description William 2023-07-28 06:08:02 UTC 
Description:
I saved a UOF (.uot) a while ago. The file opens, yet no text renders.
I had a Rich-Text File(.rtf) file and wanted to change to using an open document format.

Here is a UOF file for an example: https://mega.nz/file/BUoXELrY#dSswPwgEK0B6wuCFQt3d5gCQ3gNDhNkheDl8UzzRlJg

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open a .uot file from the open documents dialog
2.
3.

Actual Results:
The file will open yet not render any text.

Expected Results:
the file will open and the text in the document will render


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
The software should open the UOF file and render the text in the file.

The file seems to have a strange page size.
Edit the page style a select a page size like A4, and you can see the text.

Similar issues with ApacheOpenOffice417m1(Build:9800) – Rev. 46059c9192
Needs to set up the page size.

thank you m.a.riosv.  That was truly specific and not something I would have thought of looking at.
