LibreOffice --convert-to DOCX to RTF

Hi, trying to convert a docx into RTF and finding the first bullet point list displays as a square with a question mark in it!

output rtf:

On Windows, using libreoffice 7.5.8.2 running this command:

soffice --headless --convert-to “rtf:Rich Text Format” “C:\ConvertTest\LO_Test.docx” --outdir “C:\ConvertTest”

any help would be much appreciated!!!

Could be tdf#78492

Any idea if there is a workaround? seems like the issue has been floating around for a while now!

I guess, not using an obsolete and abandoned (by MS) format like RTF is not an appropriate workaround? :wink:

I feel that, but alas… apparently no :smiley: appreciate it though! i shall continue beating my head against a wall instead until the problem goes away one way or another…

But if you can add your DOCX there to the bug report (or here, as an attachment), it could happen either a different issue, or - if it’s the same - it could be a helpful document to see it from a different perspective / help developer.
