<pre>Description:
A spinoff of <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_RESOLVED bz_closed"
title="RESOLVED NOTABUG - FILESAVE: docx file; multiple highlighted text colours have been saved in one colour."
href="show_bug.cgi?id=107793">bug 107793</a>. When exporting a ODT to DOCX the highlighting colors
are converted to a best matching color, creating all sorts of unwanted changes.
As Tamás Zolnai described:
By default LO highlighting is saved as MSO highlighting, but MSO highlighting
has only a 16 color palette, so colors are converted to this 16 colors using
the best matching color, that's why colors are different and also may happen
that two colors are converted to the same MSO highlighting color.
At the Tools -> Options -> Load/Save -> Microsoft Office you can change the
default behavior to save LO highlighting as MSO shading and so you get the old
behavior having all colors the same, but be aware of that when opening this
document with MSO, backgroud colors will be shading, so the highlighter tool
won't work on them. There is a different settings for shading.
Steps to Reproduce:
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open <span class=""><a href="http://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=133267" name="attach_133267" title="Example file">attachment 133267</a> <a href="http://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=133267&action=edit" title="Example file">[details]</a></span>
2. Save to DOCX
3. Open the DOCX and the ODT
4. Compare both
Actual Results:
Multiple color highlights converted to one color.
Expected Results:
More interoperability;
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
