Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Cannot open DOCX file
I was able to extract the files using an old version of WinZip. Do we know anything about how LO processes DOCX files? I suspect that when it opens the file, it scans the first N bytes looking for somekind of signature that it is not finding in the file created by Mobi OfficeSuite. Dennis E.

RE: [libreoffice-users] Re: Cannot open DOCX file
I did not see anything that suggested the file from Mobi OfficeSuite was broken. Peter did, and I wonder if that may be related to differences in Zip implementations. I am waiting for more details. The Mobi OfficeSuite .docx file just might be different and still within the tolerances of the OOXML specification (and how Zip is used in that specification). So let us not assume that the root cause of the problem is known or that there is in fact only one defect in one place that contributes to the problem. It is still unknown how it is that LO versions do not recognize the document at all. - Dennis -Original Message- From: Tom [mailto:tomdavie...@yahoo.co.uk] Sent: Sunday, October 30, 2011 04:49 To: users@global.libreoffice.org Subject: [libreoffice-users] Re: Cannot open DOCX file Hi :) We seem to have 2 threads with the same issue going on at the moment.
