To reproduce the bug, 1- start libreoffice writer 3 2- select from the menu "Insert>Object>OLE Object..." 3- select the "Create from file" radio button 4- click the "Search..." button 5- select any pdf or other non plaintext, non libreoffice compatible, or binary document 6- click the "OK" button Expected behaviour : an icon representing your document should be inserted. Clicking on the icon should open the document using the appropriate program. Observed behaviour : an "ASCII Filter Options" dialog is displayed. Clicking OK in that dialog will insert a frame containing the text from the pdf file (as if you just cat the pdf file). I am using Ubuntu linux v12.04 and libreoffice v3.5.4.2, but I think the bug has always existed, as I had the same problem before with openoffice. --- ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu12 Architecture: amd64 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Release amd64 (20110427.1) Package: libreoffice 1:3.5.4-0ubuntu1 PackageArchitecture: amd64 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-29.46-generic 3.2.24 Tags: precise running-unity Uname: Linux 3.2.0-29-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to precise on 2012-04-30 (99 days ago) UserGroups: adm admin cdrom dialout lpadmin plugdev sambashare vboxusers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1034370/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
