> sorry, that was the wrong bug number

Hi. It's weird that I can see 2 different types of docx extensions in my home/documents folder (in two different colors as well). I mean can open the whites docx extension files done in a MsOffice format with Calligra words  but I can not open the blue doxc extension files done in MsOffice  for probably these last ones were retouched and saved by an alternative MsOffice suite like Onlyoffice/LibreOffice in one of my other linux devices where I use these alternative suites.

Had the same problem. But I built Calligra myself. In my case the problem solved by changing build type to release: cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
