------- Additional comments from m...@openoffice.org Fri May 8 14:36:07 +0000 2009 ------- So here's a proposal. We will extend the filter dialog with a preview, like in Calc where you always can see how the first few rows will look with the current settings. We will have a text engine in that dialog that displays the first few thousand characters of the document using the current settings. This will enable us to test the "text" in a "sandbox". Even if the user presses "OK" though he just sees garbage, we can still run a detection over the previewed text and reject it in case it does not match our criteria. Once the text is in the Writer core it is close to impossible to handle all the problems that might appear deep inside the text formatting or the VCL text output caused by text garbage. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
