2011-05-25 23:16:17 penalvch description When using bulleted lists in OpenOffice.org's Writer and saving the document in plain text, bullets are not converted to anything, such as asterisks, in the plain text and are just left out. I tested this in Ubuntu 5.10's included OpenOffice.org Writer and in Ubuntu Dapper Flight 6's OpenOffice.org Writer (ubuntu package version 2.0.2-1ubuntu6). Reproducing this: 1. Open OpenOffice.org's Writer. (Applications -> Office -> OpenOffice.org Writer) 2. In the blank document enter the following 3 lines: list item one list item two list item three 3. Highlight the three lines and click the "Bullets" button on the toolbar to make that list be a bulleted list. You'll see bullets in front of each item on the list. 4. Now, click File, then Save As, and save the document as a plain text document (for example: "bullets.txt") 5. In the Nautilus file manager, navigate to where you saved the plain text file and double-click on it and it would open in "gedit". There are no bullets (which could be represented by asterisks) in front of the 3 lines in the plain text version of the file. 1) lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 11.04 Release: 11.04 2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-calc libreoffice-calc: Installed: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5 Candidate: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5 Version table: *** 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty-updates/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu4 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main i386 Packages apt-cache policy unoconv unoconv: Installed: 0.3-6 Candidate: 0.3-6 Version table: *** 0.3-6 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/universe i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3) What is expected to happen in LibreOffice Writer via the Terminal: cd ~/Desktop && wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/38211/+attachment/2142831/+files/example.odt && unoconv --listener && unoconv -f txt example.odt && lowriter -nologo example.txt example.odt the bullets in example.odt are converted to asterisks in the example.txt file, as Word does it if converted from .doc to .txt. 4) What happens instead is the bullets are removed but not replaced with asterisks. The file was created opening a blank document then entering the following 3 lines: list item one list item two list item three Highlight the three lines and click the "Bullets" button on the toolbar to make the list bulleted. Save as .odt file.
