            Bug ID: 149419
           Summary: Footnote numbers aren't reset between letters in mail
                    merge
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.7.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

When writing a document and adding footnotes, then making a mail merge using
that template, the footnote numbers are incremented across the whole mailing
rather than reset for each letter.

For instance, I have a template with two footnotes numbered "1" and "2" in the
document.

I do a mail merge that will output 4 letters with different addresses.

In the preview (on screen), each letter has the correct footnote numbering ("1"
and "2")

But when printing it with the Print button in the mail merge toolbar, the first
letter will have "1", "2"; then the second letter will have "3", "4", etc.

With a large enough mail merge and enough documents, the two footnotes end up
being numbered in the hundreds or thousands when they should instead reset with
each distinct letter/document.
