<html> <head> <style></style></head> <body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Hi Roopesh,<div><br></div><div>My testing is mainly on DOCX as that's the original file i start with and then i convert it to a DOC using the microsoft office compatibility pack, so i can see what users of pre-office 2007 might be seeing. I then open the DOCX and DOC in libreoffice and compare its opening with word 2007, 2010, 2013, and kingsoft writer. I then save<span style="font-size: 12pt;"> each of the files in DOCX, OOXML Text, DOC, ODF 1.1, ODF 1.2, and RTF, and compare the results with ms word and kingsoft writer. I then convert the original DOCX file in ms word and kingsoft writer to all the formats that are openable in libreoffice so i can see how well libreoffice can handle it. And within all this testing, i check libreoffice writer 4.2, 4.1, 4.0 and 3.6 to see if the bug is a regression or not.</span></div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Thanks for the info about finding out what produced the file.</span></div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Jay</span></div><div><br><div><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Thu, 24 Apr 2014 10:21:45 +0530<br>From: roopesh.kohad@synerzip.com<br>To: philipz85@hotmail.com<br>CC: libreoffice-qa@lists.freedesktop.org<br>Subject: Re: [Libreoffice-qa] Extensive docx conversion tests...<br><br><div dir="ltr"><div class="ecxgmail_extra"><div class="ecxgmail_quote"><div> Hi Jay,</div><div><br></div><div>I had looked at your earlier mail and figured that you are testing word & odf documents coming into LibreOffice.

If you unzip the file and go to docProps/app.xml, there is a tag <Application> & <Version> which can tell you the application used to create the DOCX. However, what I have observed is applications don't update this religiously. Its only Microsoft Office which puts this information. The <Version> correspond to a specific release of MS Office. </div> <div>"10.0" => MS Office 2007, "12.0" => MS Office 2010, "14.0" => MS Office 2013.</div> <div><br></div><div>Hope this helps.</div><div><br></div><div>regards,</div><div>Roopesh</div><div><br></div><blockquote class="ecxgmail_quote" style="border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"><div> <div> -------- Original Message -------- <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tbody> <tr> <th nowrap="" valign="BASELINE" align="RIGHT">Subject: </th> <td>Re: [Libreoffice-qa] Extensive docx conversion tests...</td> </tr> <tr> <th nowrap="" valign="BASELINE" align="RIGHT">Date: </th> <td>Tue, 22 Apr 2014 13:12:55 +0400</td> </tr> <tr> <th nowrap="" valign="BASELINE" align="RIGHT">From: </th> <td>Jay Philips <a href="mailto:philipz85@hotmail.com" target="_blank"><philipz85@hotmail.com></a></td> </tr> <tr> <th nowrap="" valign="BASELINE" align="RIGHT">To: </th> <td><a href="mailto:libreoffice-qa@lists.freedesktop.org" target="_blank">libreoffice-qa@lists.freedesktop.org</a></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <br> <br> <div><tt>Hi Roopesh,<br> <br> Well as i dont have .docx files of my own, i thought the best place to get .docx files was from microsoft's website, as they wouldnt be using any other word processor to create them. :) I may venture beyond their website if i can find a good source of .docxs created in word.
