Created attachment 101066 [details] How it looks in edit mode in LibO 4.3 beta 2 and master When investigating attachment 87970 [details] for bug 70751 on Windows, i see that the EPS image doesnt show in edit or slideshow modes. It begins by attempting to process the image and then fails. Tested on Windows 7 on 3.3.0, 4.2.4, 4.2.6, 4.3 beta 2 and 4.4 alpha.
confirmed under Win7x64 using 4.2.4.2
@Jay, @Tommy27, *, See bug 62051 c#8--this is a Windows only issue for handling EPS. Setting as such. For Windows to render EPS you need several helper programs established on system PATH. Ghostscript (gswin32c.exe), pstoedit (pstoedit.exe) and alternatively ImageMagick (convert.exe) Without those present as 32-bit helpers, LibreOffice on Windows will not process EPS as vector or bitmap previews and you will get the box with meta data shown. This will need to be solved with LibreOffice native EPS handling as in the bug 67464 enhancement. Until then, the helpers are needed--or perform external conversion to EMF/WMF for placement of vector images.
Setting resolved not a bug. Windows users need to install the appropriate helper programs. ghostscript (v9.14) http://downloads.ghostscript.com/public/ pstoedit (v3.62) http://sourceforge.net/projects/pstoedit/ Imagemagick (v6.8.9-7) http://www.imagemagick.org/download/
