[Bug 295014]

 

Bug exists in:
1. LibreOffice 4.3.3.2 (Build ID: 430m0(Build:2)). 
2. LibreOffice 4.4.0.0.alpha2 (Build ID: 24f0a5815f581dd9a7f09d30213a379edee6e9ac).


As a conclusion I can say the following - I can't fix bug 65403, bug 65404, bug 64490 by myself (they are more difficult than bug 79599). But I'm ready to test changes.

But these bugs brake normal document exchange between MS Word' and LibO Writer' users, so they should be fixed as soon as possible in LibO 4.3 and upcoming 4.4.
Developers can use my attachments: DOC-to-ODT [1] and ODT-to-DOC [2] for round-trip testing.

  3) What is expected to happen in documented exported from Writer
  opened in Word via the Terminal:

  && wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Microsoft\
  Office/OFFICE11/WINWORD.EXE test_highlight.doc

  click the Highlight button -> No Fill and the highlight is removed.

  4) What happens instead is the highlight is not removed.

  WORKAROUND: In Word click Format -> Boarders and Shading... -> Shading
  tab -> click No Fill button -> under Preview change drop down Apply
  to: text -> OK button

  WORKAROUND: Use AbiWord to export documents with highlighting.
