After waiting a long time for a new version to come, I fixed the image and øæå issue myself.
Here is a version of the openoffice.org extension that supports images and øæå.

Haavard,

do you have a bit more information on how we can re-produce this?

Format error in content.xml 3,96(row,col)

The problem is caused by images "in the xml part of the article" or by a image relation (standard image import at end of edit a article "Image [Object relation] (id:154)"). Because when I try to export an article without any images the document works fine.

EZ generates the following error the first time OO ex. is started after clear cache, but they are most likely unrelated.

Error: eZTemplate @ extension/oo/design/standard/templates/oo/export.tpl:34[63] Apr 12 2005 14:36:43 
parser error @ extension/oo/design/standard/templates/oo/export.tpl:34[78]
Extra characters found in expression, they will be ignored.

Error: eZTemplate:ElementParser::parseVariableTag Apr 12 2005 14:36:43 
parser error @ s
Parser position did not move, this is most likely a bug in the template parser.

My advice is that you skip the OO export in the next version, and instead concentrates on the import function, because EZ already have PDF support. But then again OO documents have some advantages over PDF.

When I started using the OO extension for real, I quickly discovered that there are a lot of bugs in beta 2 of the extension. Here are a few bugs.

- Random appearing of emphasize and strong in imported files
- Sometimes extra lines appears
- Random text is removed when importing docs

To re-produce this errors try using another document that the example.

Håvard,

please provide more information when you discover bugs.

It would be great if you could use the bugreporting system as well, so we can track the bugs reported.

I am now looking into reproducing the image bug you mention.

Do the current version support different OO "styles". Looking at the ezoogenerator.php file I see that Illustration, Table, Text, Drawing is named, but what about default and the rest.

- Do you mean this image bug?

I have installed and tried oo extension version 1.0 but when I export a document the size is always 0 bytes. Do I have to do some magic to get this working ?
Import works flawlessly though.
Tested on eZ 3.5.2

Hans-Henry, to get export working you need to have the "zip" command line program installed or mod_gzip in PHP.

I can export files after installing zip but when I try to open it in openoffice 1.1.4 I get the following error message:

"Read-Error.
Format error discovered in the file in sub-document content.xml at 4,129(row,col)."

The row,col number is different from article to article.

I have unzipped the sxw document and opened the content.xml document without any error messages.

This is interesting. I did get reports about this happening. I have not been able to reproduce this on my systems. Can you provide more information on how this is re-produced?

Does it always happen? What is your system information?

Hi,

Have you had time to look through the info I sent you?

Mail was sent Tuesday 03.05.2005 (DDMMYYYY) 15:44

Hans-Henry,

Yes, we have looked at the info you sent me. I have not been able to re-produce it on my systems (all Linux) but on a windows system.

We haven't had time to find a solution for it. But the problem was related to the files generated in the ezoogenerator.php file. If someone with a windows environment would have time to look a bit at this problem happening during export that would be great ;)

I believe this is an OO.o bug not an eZ bug. I am using OO.o 1.9.100 on Linux but not using eZpublish, and am getting the same error (but with different row and column numbers). Did not ever see this error prior to upgrading to OO.o version 1.9.100 from version (I believe) 1.9.72.

I have tested the beta 2 on SUSE 9.2 and Windows XP, and the export don.t work on any of them. The same old error is displayed.
