Description dgantert 2005-09-01 12:18:47 UTC 
I have a document with many small tables in it. They differ in size and I
usually add new ones at the top. So everything else is pushed down. Now I set
all tables, that they are not allowed to split across pages. This feature is
saved and read correctly, when I use an .odt file. But if I save it to .doc, it
is read correctly in Word (or at least Word does not split the tables, but
always moves them to the next page as desired). If I read the same .doc with OOo
Writer, this table feature  is lost and I need to reset it in all tables.

please attach the offending document to this issue, so that we can reproduce and
fix the problem here. You can also send the document directly
(mru@openoffice.org) for the case it contains confidential data. Feel free to
re-open the issue when you've done.
Thanks for supporting us!

Reopened issue. I have now found out, why the problem occurs.
Comment 3 michael.ruess 2005-09-02 10:15:25 UTC 
MRU->HDU: open the document (I will send it, it's kinda confidential). There you
will see a font being used called "Persistent". This will be replaced with two
different fonts; once with a serife Font (when having Bold face, see left table
cells) and once with a non-serife Font (when having regular face, see right
table cells).
When formatting the text in the right table cells manually e.g. with Times New
Roman font, the docuent will look fine.

I don't think, it's a problem with the font replacement, because I have that
font installed on my PC, so it is not replaced, when I open the document.

To test it, create a document with a table in it. Uncheck the "split table
across pages" in the table properties. Save the document as odt and as doc.
Close and reopen them both. The odt will still have the table property as set
before, but the doc will have a checkmark at that option, even though it was
unchecked before saving it.
