Bug ID: 152203
Summary: Footnotes randomized on DOCX import
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.4.2.3 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Footnotes are shown in LibreOffice Writer in the wrong order, in a document
exported from Google Docs as DOCX.
It looks like they are imported in the order in which they are written, not in
which they should be displayed. I.e. if footnotes are written out of order, the
import process will put the content of the Nth footnote written in the Nth
footnote location in the document, and not with the correct foothold number
(which could be anywhere in the document). See the attached example.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Save this Google doc as DOCX, observe how footnotes are arranged:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bchredyAFKA3klaW-8dkrBRh3Xvdxqbv5ADZ6FEpCyw/edit?usp=sharing
2. Open the document in LibreOffice Writer, see how the last 2 pages have
swapped footnotes.
I will try to attach the docx also.
Actual Results:
Each page has its own specific footnotes
Expected Results:
Last 2 footnotes are swapped
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
Discovered this on 100+ pages long document, where the footnotes are completely
randomized when loaded in LibreOffice Writer.
