[Libreoffice-qa] Extensive docx conversion tests...

[Roopesh Kohad]

Hi Jay,

Yes, 14.0 is MS Office 2010. Thanks for clarifying. I probably got confused
with the similar numbers. Having said that, other DOCX producers don't
respect this metadata any may keep/not keep this. So, personally I don't
rely much on this information.

regards,
Roopesh
