well, I had a first look at your documents and must say that the issue in general isn't fixable. Your document A contains a page "FirstPage" with an automatic page break to "Default". "FirstPage" and "Default" have different page margins. As far as I know (anybody wants to correct me?) Word is not able to handle this situation.

In order to have different margins on different pages in Word, you have to start a new section. Thus, automatic change from margins from page 1 to page 2 is impossible. (We already knew that Writer is just better.)

However, for each section in Word you can set that the header/footer is different on the first page of that section. (As well as choosing different for left and right page.)

1.1.5 seems to export the headings correctly but looses the different page margins. 2.2 loses both the headings and the page margins. So at least the headings could be preserved correctly.

Correct. In 1.1.5 the different header/footer "FistPage" and "Default" are transformed to different header footer for the first page of a section in Word.

Workaround: Give "FirstPage" and "Default" the same margins.


Admittedly, the summary of issue 78723 is incomplete. One of the properties could be exported. The problem is not (AFAIAC) in the margins.
The headers/footers are the real subject of my question:

Can you pls give a look to the possible time in which this issue
can be fixed?

Kindest regards,
Cor
