Using MS Word 97, I get this error message, sometimes overe and over:
"Error at line 173, position 17 (Code/MSWriter.js): The formatting in this document is too complex. Please full save the document now.
Microsoft Word 800A1624"

It works fine in Open Office.

Also, in MS Word, the first line in the paragraphs in notes is reverse indented (instead of the entire paragraph?). I think this can be fixed in the .dot file.

Let me know if you'd like details. I'm using the version with descendants.js dated January 11, 2008.

Yes this problem has been reported before and I thought I had posted the circumvention, other than amending the code as in this response, but I can't find it.

So the circumvention: There is now a configuration parameter, MSWordSavePages that can be amended at run time to a lower value. try setting it to say 4 first, then 2.

Not sure what you mean exactly by reverse indented. Notes are intended to be hanging indents. I have made a small change in version 2.0.1.5RC1 posted elsewhere. If this doesn't do thetrick then please send you suggestions for a modified .dot. Thanks.

By reverse indented I did mean hanging indents. If you have multiple paragraphs in a note, they each have hanging indents in Word, which looks funny, but only the first paragraph does in Open Office, which looks good. I've attached an example. Apparently this is because newline characters in Word cause a new paragraph automatically, but not in Open Office.

One way to fix this is to translate all the newline characters in a note to vertical tabs. You could add this "while" loop near the end of this.insertText in MSWriter.js.

} else {
/* change newlines to vertical tab to prevent additional hanging indents */
while (sContent.indexOf('/n') > 0) {
sContent = sContent.replace('/n', '/013');
}
oText.TypeText(sContent.substr(nBegin));
nBegin=sContent.length+1;
break;
}

(I changed the backslashes to forward slash because the codes were disappearing here -- they'll need to be changed back to backslash.)
