Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 50800
HTML comments - export to PDF
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:38:26 UTC
I have opened the "FreeDos Install HowTo" Html doc in writer, the comments are displayed via a yellow box. But in this document there is 2 html comments one immediately after the other : < ! -- first comment -- > < ! -- second comment -- > Only the first one is viewable with the yellow box... Moreover, when you export this document to PDF, only the second comment is viewable in the PDF document.
Reassigned to HI.
Confirming the issue.
Please provide a sample or the URL
Well, since my first mail, freedos howtos became wiki documents... :( So the tests were not do with this kind of doc http://fd-doc.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?n=FdDocEn.FdInstall I will look this week-end if I had kept a copy of the original file...
ishondar, please attach the sample file, thanks, max ;-)

All notes are present but not side by side as it is on the textdocument but lying upon each other. HI->PL: Please investigate.
pl->fme: The problem in PDF is because the notes in question occupy exactly the same rectangles; the viewer application lets only one win. Since this problem seems to be the source of the writer problem (can only see the first note in writer), also, i think it would be best to catch this pathological case in writer instead of in PDF export only. Could you please have a look ?

There is now 2 yellow boxes instead of one. That's better, but there is 3 comments one after the other, so you expect 3 yellow boxes. But, still, the only first comment showes its content. This was tested with OOo 2.3 and OOo 2.4
