Compare and Merge issues with pictures
Setup: Microsoft Office Word 2003 (11.6502.6408) SP1
Scenario 1: 1. Created a document with an image (any format: JPEG, GIF, BMP, PNG, etc.) and saved it as Document1_1.doc 2. Resized image and saved document with name Document1_2.doc. 3. Closed all instances of Word 4. Opened Document1_1.doc. Selected Tools\Compare and Merge Documents and performed merge with Document1_2.doc. Problem 1: No image revisions created in the merged document. Note: No revisions are also created for changes in other properties, such as brightness, contrast, transparency, etc. Scenario 2: 1. Made a copy of Document1_1.doc and renamed it to Document2_1.doc. 1. Opened Document2_1.doc and selected image and replaced it with another image. 2. Saved updated document with the name Document2_2.doc 3. Closed all instances of Word 4. Opened Document2_1.doc. Selected Tools\Compare and Merge Documents and performed merge with Document2_2.doc. Problem 2: No image revisions created in the merged document. Scenario 3: 1. Created a document with 3 images that follow one another (any format: JPEG, GIF, BMP, PNG, etc.) and saved it as Document3_1.doc 2. Deleted second image. 3. Saved updated document with the name Document2_2.doc. 4. Closed all instances of Word 5. Opened Document3_1.doc. Selected Tools\Compare and Merge Documents and performed merge with Document3_2.doc. 6. Save document in WordML format with the name Document3_3.xml Problem 3: Delete revision contains third picture inside. It should be the second image. Inspect saved WordML file. Word ML content looks strange. Note: Try this with images that follow one another (image that follow one another appear next to each other horizontally) and with images that are separated with paragraphs (image that follow one another appear next to each other vertically). Result is the same. Question: Did anyone run across the described issues? Is there a quick work-around? I do the merge operation programmatically through the Word Interop assemblies on WordML files. I need it to track changes in a document. |
