Public bug reported:
When I try and save the attached document in .doc format
(97/2000/XP/2003) -- other Microsoft Word formats have similar issues
-- text around some of the endnote markers gets converted to
superscript.
Note also that editing the word version to remove the superscript
attribute as necessary does not help: when the file is re-saved the
superscript text returns.
Further, the first endnote ends up with a larger font and a big gap to
the start of the footnote.
When the .doc is opened with Word there is further corruption.
Note that after saving as .doc you need to close the document and re-
open to see the corruption.
This is making it very difficult to use libreoffice for school work,
where teachers unfortunately are using Word to read the papers.
Apologies for not being able to create a smaller example.
Looking at the xml in the odt version there are lots of snippets like
this:
<text:span text:style-name="Endnote_20_anchor"><text:span text:style-
name="T14"> While the West tends to vilify OPEC as having too much power
and control over the world's oil reserves and prices, they forget
that OPEC was formed in response to the </text:span></text:span>
It looks like there are stray Endnote style requests around chunks of
text, with an inner style too. It looks like in odt the inner style
wins, in .doc the outer one wins, but it is probably not quite that
simple.
My apologies for not being able to supply a smaller example of the
problem.
