Public bug reported: AbiWord's default .abw format is only used by AbiWord. Whether it's an open format or not, this makes it nonportable, and not good for interoperability or archival purposes.
Is it possible to set ODT (Open/Libre Office OpenDocument ODT) format as default AbiWord format? Is is simple: just add <SystemDefaults DefaultSaveFormat=".odt" /> to /usr/share/abiword-2.9/system.profile more informations: http://www.abisource.com/wiki/FAQ/Always_save_as_Word ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.04 Package: abiword 2.9.2+svn20120603-8 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.8.0-19.29-generic 3.8.8 Uname: Linux 3.8.0-19-generic i686 ApportVersion: 2.9.2-0ubuntu8 Architecture: i386 CasperVersion: 1.330 Date: Wed Oct 9 13:03:56 2013 LiveMediaBuild: Lubuntu 13.04 "Raring Ringtail" - Release i386 (20130423.1) MarkForUpload: True ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=cs_CZ.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: abiword UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: abiword (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug i386 raring ** Attachment added: "abiword_ODT.diff" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1237396/+attachment/3868963/+files/abiword_ODT.diff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1237396 Title: Set Open Document ODT as default save format instead of ABW To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/abiword/+bug/1237396/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
