People Picker not working on office documents
Posted: 20 Jun 2014
We can reproduce the following failure on two machines with SharePoint 2013 SP1 Standard (on premise) and SPForms 2.8.8. or 2.8.9. installed.
We created a Content Type that inherits from content type document. Content type has a people picker column (multiple values)
When uploading an office document as this content type and choosing a person in a form created with spforms designer, the value of this column is not saved. No error message is displayed.
This error only occurs when editing properties of office documents (word, excel). The people picker column works properly when pdfs or images are uploaded as this content type.
