MS Word Compatibility Issue - Fillable Worksheet

Post by vtpoet »

Attached is a fillable worksheet designed on and for MS Word.

It's possible to fill in the text fields but there's apparently a compatibility bug that prevents one from being able to insert an image.

A workaround is to copy and paste the contents of the document into a new document.

Also: Will test on Softmaker for Windows.

The document works as expected on Onlyoffice and Libreoffice.

But you mentioned that the origin of this document is MS Word. But it's not working in its origin software also, as it's write protected.

Are you able to fill data using LibreOffice?
