            Bug ID: 132475
           Summary: Dynamic fields revert to static text in LibreOffice
                    Writer documents saved in .docx format.
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.7.3 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: mojomojoman at gmail.com

Description:
The document information fields 'Modified' and 'Last Printed' get converted to
static text when the document is saved in .docx format. Maintaining it in .odt
retains the fields' dynamic feature.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In a new or existing document, add 'Modified' and/or 'Last Printed' fields
via Fields>More Fields>DocInformation pallet.
2. Save and close the document with the filetype .docx
3. Re-open the file. 

Actual Results:
Fields are static text of whatever their content was.

Expected Results:
Fields remain dynamic.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
