--- Comment #5 from Michelle Christides <[email protected]> ---
Alex, I tried to attach my document to email you sent directly to me.  At this
point, I will publish the whole book on your website to solve this problem
without having to write it again!  Here are my answers to your questions,
inserted at each one:

 is the document you are working on in Word format or ODT ?  I save in Word
*.doc -- not *.docx -- therefore in the most used M/S doc.   

If it is an ODT document, was the original template, or document, a Word
document that was opened in LibreOffice.  No, I started the book on my iMac
from a new text document in LO.  I did not experience this problem until later
in the length of the document -- then I kept correcting as I went along. This
is why Patrick's bug report makes sense to me.  No matter how many times I
correct, it reverts when I save.  I always saved in Word 97/200/XP/2003(.doc)
-- then I tried Word 2007/2010/2013XML(.docx) -- because AMAZON wants it.  I
have used Word since the 1980s and Word 97 seems to be the easiest and most
complete for my editing functions as a writer. 

Did you originally create the document in LibreOffice from scratch, then export
to Word format (if so which one), and then continue to work on it from there ? 
As above, I never exported, never ever saved in odt even the first time
(because, as with Gimp or with Audacity, proprietary formats are not easily
used when you want to publish).  I hate PAGES (the iMac, as you probably know)
and when I went to Mac last year, I was recommended LO by a friend, who said
it's better than Open Office, which it was until this misery started. 

I am just trying to narrow down the possibilities. Other than stating that the
document is big, you do not mention how the document was created. Sorry -- all
my docs are saved as Word 97 and started in "new text doc" from scratch.

Please note that I am not disbelieving that your problem is real, but without a
sample document, and of course absolutely understanding that you don't want to
publish your book on the bugzilla website, we can't go much further. Thought
you had an "alternative" --
