3) What is expected to happen in LibreOffice Impress via the Terminal:

cd ~/Desktop && wget -c https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/783794/+attachment/2131821/+files/EDC%20Presentation%281%29.pptx -O info.pptx && loimpress -nologo info.pptx

is the black text on white background for slide 2 looks as it does in PowerPoint.

4) What happens instead is the black text is converted to white.

Created attachment 45601
Example pptx file that doesn't render in impress correctly.

When you open a PPTX file in impress it doesn't preserve the text effects.

To reproduce open example.pptx . There is a black text with a shadow and a white outline in the center of the slide. However, impress renders the text white with no effects. It basically renders it useless.

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present on a currently supported version of LibreOffice (4.4.1 or later): https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the version of LibreOffice and your operating system, and any changes you see in the bug behavior

If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a short comment that includes your version of LibreOffice and Operating System

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)

http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to "inherited from OOo"; 4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add "regression" to keyword
