Open Documents from FileMaker/Confluence

Post by mrfen »

Hi, we are evaluating alternative MS Office product for AWS deployment. We are currently testing with the users and have noticed that TextMaker are not able to open the Documents exported from File Maker and Atlassian Confluence. I have attached the test export document from Atlassian Confluence.

Anyone else encountered this and have a work around for this?

The sample document opens for me in TextMaker 2021, and it looks similar to the way it looks when I open it with LibreOffice Writer. It looks totally different when I open it with Microsoft Word.

The attached document looks to me like an HTML email with an embedded Word document. Microsoft Word seems to have an import filter for this kind of docs, TextMaker hasn't. Only when you change the file extension from .doc to .html, TextMaker is able to read the document.

FileMaker can send data as email or export as *.csv, *.html, *.dbf, *.xslx or PDF. Which file format are you having trouble with?
