<pre>Description:
Got a .odt file converted from .doc, containing unknown / unnamed fields. Not
really usable, as field shadings never disappear and are going to be printed.
Asked an unanswered up to now question:
<a href="https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/163796/how-to-find-out-which-type-of-fieldsplaceholder-are-used-in-unknown-document/">https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/163796/how-to-find-out-which-type-of-fieldsplaceholder-are-used-in-unknown-document/</a>
Is this conversion maybe a bug, as it's result is not really usable?
NO IDEA what might have been used in MS-WORD to create these fields,
unfortunately.
Steps to Reproduce:
Open .doc in LO
Actual Results:
.odt contains unnamed/unusable fields
Expected Results:
.odt should contain usable fields
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
