[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 154020] DOC with Mac-Picts: images don't import
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154020 --- Comment #10 from Mike Kaganski --- Note that there was no removal of support. There was a regression, caused by a change that targeted something else. It does not need any discussion, only a fix. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154020 --- Comment #9 from Alex Thurgood --- (In reply to bunkem from comment #8) Just my 2c on this. LO still supports direct insertion of PICT files into a Draw document. I haven't checked Impress, but presumably the same range of image formats are supported ? LO Draw supports a number of image formats that might be considered "unsupported" by the official organisation behind the format, so removing the support for one arbitrarily because the corresponding Word filter can not handle it should be weighed up very carefully as to the impact and perception of such a decision on the suite as a whole. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154020 --- Comment #8 from bunkem --- Thanks @Mike. The additional info is very helpful. I'm old enough to remember MS Word 6 for Mac and still have the install discs. Oh my was that software a piece of s**t. I got on the first name basis with many MS support staff due to all the problems. :LOL: I remember there were numerous graphics issues with Word 6 but can't remember if this happened when the software converted the PICT images to Microsoft BMP or EMF images. @ilmari, we need your input. I can confirm the issue and being able to open old doc files created on Word Mac should work. I'm not sure if there is a time line on how long old files need to be usable or convertible using the current versions of LO. I can't test further since I don't have old enough hardware to run Word 6 Mac and Apple/Mac PICT files have been official unsupported for at least a decade. Should this be pushed to Document Liberation project that deals with file conversions?? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

This was what MS Word for Mac used to create back then with the embedded images. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

I have a few more questions that would help me to test. >From your notes, the second file was created using Word 97 "save as" but using the first file as the basis. Is this correct? I presume this was on Windows? Which version of Windows? How did you create the first file? What software (Word?), software version (Word 97?) and OS (Windows 98/7/10?)? The image files are Mac-Pict. How were they created and using which software on which OS? Thanks in advance. B. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154020 --- Comment #3 from bunkem --- Tried to open the two files in Version: 7.4.7.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 723314e595e8007d3cf785c16538505a1c878ca5 CPU threads: 4; OS: Mac OS X 10.13.6; UI render: default; VCL: osx Locale: en-CA (en_CA.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded "Conspiracy Theories.doc" only opens with 4 pictures. There are no bounding boxes for the other pictures. "Conspiracy Theories - resavedByW97.doc" opens all 10 pictures OK. So it appears that the first file "Conspiracy Theories.doc" is defective in some way. Since the second document "Conspiracy Theories - resavedByW97.doc" opens and shows all pictures, I'd say this "works for me" and is no longer a bug. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
