ZIP container containing one document with lot of (reduced) pictures the doc
refers to
This problem exists for several years already, but as the underlying project
has been set aside for a long time, the was no priority. Now I would like to
continue the work, but since the latest additions to the document I can no
longer create an error free document. Before a valid document could be made
with some luck and several tries. The problen had been reported before in a
forum, but due to the lack of a reproducer it was probably never officially
reported.
Now I have been able to create a reproducer in a reasonable size.
Currently I use Version 5.3.7.2 on Windows 10 Version 1709 (Build 16299.192).
The System is a Acer Laptop with a I7-5500U CPU and 16GB Memory, 250GB SSD
System disk.
The problem also occurred on a HP Laptop with an upgraded Windows 10 (from W7).
The document is a discography with several hundred items (Vinyl, CD, DVD,
Book), a lot of tables, a TOC and an extensive Index. The problem is, that
after recreating the TOC there are unwanted page breaks in the document. These
breaks occur in the middle of a page and the text flow continues one or more
pages later, sometimes at the beginning of the page, sometimes at the same
place where the break occurs.
Often it is enough to place the cursor at the end of the line before the
unwanted break and hit the right arrow button, but sometimes a new paragraph
has to be made by hitting the 'return' key followed by an undo operation. If
the break occurs between two tables, a line has to be inserted in the table
after the break, again followed by an undo operation.
However, the problem just moves a few pages further down. The whole document
has to be checked and fixed, including the index pages. Then the document is
o.k. but the TOC is now wrong. Refreshing it, the problem occurs again. In the
current reproducer the problem usually begins on page 193.
I tried once to split the document into a global- and sub-documents, but the
problem remains. Even worse, the breaks occur in the sub-documents – but only
when opened in the global document – and can therefore not fixed as described
above. Opening the sub-document by itself does not show the problem.
The list below shows the main chapters and the page numbers as they should be.

In order to create a reproducer of a reasonable size, all pictures have been
reduced to a width of 8 pixels.
