Priority: medium
Bug ID: 74328
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: FORMATTING: Pagination resets if starting page above
255 in MS Word DOC/XML documents
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Windows (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.2.0.4 release
Component: Writer
Product: LibreOffice
For documents saved in the MS Word DOC/XML formats the page numbering resets to
1 whenever the starting page number is set above 255 when set via the
following:
Format>Paragraph...>Text Flow>
..
Breaks
[x] Insert [Type: Page Position: Before]
[x] With Page Style [Type: Default Page Number: 255]
Similar behavior is present in documents saved in the RTF and DocBook XML
formats. Lastly, documents saved in the UOT format became completely
corrupted.
How to repeat:
1) create a new multi-page MS Word DOC or XML document using default settings
2) modify style of first paragraph on first page as described above, setting
the starting page number to 255.
3) enable "Footer On" in first page style if needed
4) insert "Page Number" field in footer of first page
5) observe that all document pages display Page Number field in
footer area and are numbered sequentially starting at 255
6) save and close document
7) reopen document; page numbering should still start at 255
8) modify style of first paragraph on first page again, setting the
starting page number to 256. Save and close document.
9) reopen document; page numbering has reset, starting at 1
Oddly enough, documents saved in MS Word DOCX format did not appear to suffer
from this bug. This bug has also been found in current stable version of
Apache OpenOffice Writer (re:
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=124032 ).
