- odf.preset: word (Microsoft Word style, default) or libreoffice; wordcraft still read as word
- Options, CLI (WORDCRAFT_ODF), docs and ROADMAP follow the two styles
- CodeRabbit: kept groups and story fingerprints follow fill_objects; padding serde default;
list field depth; literal doubled quote; ASK/SET results not exported; dc:date offsets;
first_pages order; unique picture names; finite raise clamp; PDF rotated-text guard;
.ott in the password message; flat element bounded by depth; cell tile fallback;
ROADMAP and docs reconciled
- Remove clean-room wording from the ODT tests
The standard (§18.3.1, since ODF 1.2) reads an angle without a unit in
degrees. WordCraft read unitless gradient angles in tenths of a degree in
every file; in ODF 1.3 files it now follows the standard.
LibreOffice and OpenOffice wrote gradient and hatch angles in tenths of a
degree in their files before ODF 1.3 and still read them so; read by the
standard, every older LibreOffice document's gradients would turn the
wrong way. So in files older than 1.3 they are still read in tenths: a
deviation from the standard, out of necessity, now listed in
docs/odf-interpretation.md (a new rule and section for such deviations).
WordCraft always writes these angles with a unit.
The ODF 1.2 -> 1.3 changes (ODF 1.3 Part 3 Appendix G and their OASIS
issues) were checked: none other gives a value written for 1.2 another
meaning; the new defaults match how LibreOffice already read them.

More of what WordCraft doesn't change is written back as it was read:
tables; the document properties it doesn't model (template, statistics,
editing time, printing); the declarations opening the text and the
document's scripts; page layouts and master pages while the page setup
is unchanged, each section starting with the master page it started
with; named sections around unedited paragraphs. Package files and
folders kept markup names (a style's fill picture, a header's embedded
object) are written with it, with their manifest entries.
Files are saved as ODF 1.3; markup kept from an older file is brought to
1.3's meaning (a gradient's or hatch's unitless angle was tenths of a
degree). WordCraft's own drawings state style:flow-with-text, which the
standard leaves open.
odt::tests_more::lossless saves seven samples of our own without edits
and fails on anything lost (nothing is allowed), and checks that edits
keep the saved parts well-formed.
Over the 133-file corpus the round-trip difference falls from 191k to
51k pixels; 95 files come back pixel-identical (62 before).

A paragraph nothing changed since it was read (by a fingerprint of how it
was modelled) is written with its own markup, unknown elements and
attributes included, together with the automatic styles, common styles,
font faces, namespaces and package files it names. While no style or list
definition changed, styles.xml's office:styles is the file's own (unused
list styles, note and line numbering configuration, attributes WordCraft
doesn't read); drawing definitions and the default graphic style stay
WordCraft's, as drawings are written from the model.
Paragraphs holding drawings, comments, tracked changes or ranged marks,
or starting a page, are written from the model, as is everything edited.
Kept markup lives in memory only (wordcraft_doc::kept, 64 MB at most) and
is never part of the document's content.
Over the 133-file corpus the round-trip difference in LibreOffice falls
from 528k to 191k pixels; 62 files come back pixel-identical (46 before).

Widow and orphan control a file doesn't state is open in the standard
(it refers to XSL, whose initial value is 2); LibreOffice reads it as
off. It is now a profile case (widowControl), and WordCraft writes it on
its default style either way.
LibreOffice measures tab stops from the paragraph's indent when its
TabsRelativeToIndent setting is on (its default), default stops too
(measured). WordCraft's layout now counts default stops from the indent
for such documents, and writes them back measuring from the indent
instead of from the margin, which moved LibreOffice's default stops.

Found with Google Docs' and ONLYOFFICE's ODT files (now in the local
corpus):
- A heading's look comes from its style, its outline level from its
element: a text:h without text:outline-level (level 1, §19.850.4) in a
style based on Heading 2 looks as Heading 2, as LibreOffice draws it,
and keeps outline level 1 (it became Heading 1). The level is carried
apart from the style (ParaProps::outline_level through the flow) and
written back as text:outline-level.
- Widow and orphan control is stated in the default paragraph style
(fo:widows/fo:orphans 2) when Normal has it: LibreOffice reads none
unsaid as off, so pages broke differently.
Google's 2011 Fundamentals export now round-trips with its 88 pages and
its text (1.27M -> 139k differing pixels).

Found by comparing WordCraft's own documents in LibreOffice and
bisecting settings.xml (observed only, black-box):
- The settings set's name, ooo:configuration-settings, is a qualified
name: without xmlns:ooo declared LibreOffice ignored every setting
WordCraft wrote (its Word layout rules, tab measuring).
- A set LibreOffice reads must be complete: a setting missing from it
gets its old pre-OpenOffice value, which changes the layout. WordCraft
now writes LibreOffice's current layout defaults (as a new LibreOffice
document has them), overlaid with Word's layout rules for documents
WordCraft lays out as Word does (not for ones opened from ODF), and
its own choices.
- How the space between paragraphs adds up follows a file's
AddParaTableSpacing (false: the larger, as Word); unstated, the ODF
profile's new sumParagraphSpacing (WordCraft: the larger, LibreOffice:
the sum). WordCraft writes it as it lays the document out.
WordCraft-origin documents in LibreOffice: 142k -> 80k differing pixels
over 42 documents; the LibreOffice corpus: no regressions, 40k -> 39.6k.

Found by saving WordCraft's own documents as ODT and opening them in
LibreOffice (42 documents: templates, themes, one per feature).
- Table styles: ODF has no table styles of Word's kind, so each cell now
states what the style gives it (fills, its borders, bold header text,
its paragraph spacing), under the paragraph's own styles as layout
applies them (ECMA-376 §17.7.2; StyleSheet::table_para_patch and
table_char_patch). The style's border mapping moved to
styles::part_borders, shared with layout.
- Tables read from ODT no longer get Word's Table Grid style, whose
single spacing changed their text.
- Columned sections say whether their columns end balanced
(text:dont-balance-text-columns, §20.428, read as its name says; its
value descriptions contradict it). Unstated, the ODF profile decides
(balanceSectionColumns: LibreOffice balances, WordCraft as Word).
SectionProps::balance_columns carries it to layout.
- SmartArt diagrams are saved as a draw:g of their shapes and text (with
an invisible frame keeping the graphic's box), which LibreOffice draws
as WordCraft does.
LibreOffice round-trip corpus: 40k differing pixels over 125 documents
(was 76k), 42 identical; WordCraft-origin documents 277k -> 145k.

ODF 1.3 §20.206–20.209 define page margins by referring to XSL's
(§7.10), without saying whether XSL's initial value 0 comes with the
reference; LibreOffice uses 2 cm. The margin a page layout leaves out
is now the profile's `pageMargin`: WordCraft 0 (XSL's), LibreOffice
2 cm, or custom (File › Options › Advanced › OpenDocument files,
`file.options` `odf.pageMargin`). A stated margin is the file's under
every preset. With the LibreOffice preset, LibreOffice's CV, sans-serif
business letter and one-page résumé templates match LibreOffice again.

- File › Options › Advanced › OpenDocument files: the preset is a
drop-down like Measurement units and Region; shape line width is in
points (a 0.25 pt hairline showed as 0.00").
- WordCraft's preset keeps a header's or footer's stated spacing when
its style doesn't say whether it is dynamic: with no height stated,
growing into it always dropped the spacing the file states. Custom
profiles can still grow into it.

What ODF 1.3 defines, including XSL's initial values for fo: properties,
is followed whatever the settings: unstated page margins are now 0, and
padding without a border takes room in every ODT document. What the
standard leaves to the application (Part 3 §16.2) is an OdfProfile:
WordCraft's own choices by default, LibreOffice's, or custom values.
The profile fills in only what a file leaves unsaid; stated values win
under every preset (tests_more/profile.rs).
Cases: header height, how its height and spacing combine, dynamic
spacing, tabs from the indent, column gap, shape fill, line and
hairline, page frames against a paragraph, in-line frames against a
paragraph or page, and lines of only pictures.
- doc: odf_profile module; Settings::odf (OdfLayout) replaces odf_layout
- formats: import_with / import_flat_with take a profile
- engine: Prefs::odf, file.options `odf`, opened files follow it
- ui: File > Options > Advanced > OpenDocument files (presets, custom cases)
- cli: WORDCRAFT_ODF=wordcraft|libreoffice
- docs: odf-interpretation.md lists every case (law, open, writer
choices, Google Docs and ONLYOFFICE findings); parity docs, gaps,
ROADMAP updated
