Hi :)
Again a bug-report seems like a good plan.  DocX is apparently not properly 
supported in MS Office and there are differences between the way it is 
implemented in MSO 2007 and MSO 2010.  

This sort of problem is one of the reasons that people here recommend keeping 
an original in Odt format and only save a copy in some other format when you 
need to share the document with someone else that can't or won't install 
LibreOffice or OpenOffice or any of the other office suites or programs that do 
support the OpenDocument Format.  People are quite happy to install all sorts 
of extra programs to read Pdfs but then suddenly object to installing something 
to read Odfs.  This will change as the format is becoming more popular.

Regards from
Tom :)

Subject: [libreoffice-users] Page breaks never get really deleted, bug shows 
when saving as docx.

You make a document.
You add page breaks.
You remove page breaks.
You save it (as .odt).
Open it.
The document appears to be correct.

Open the document, save as .docx.
Open the .docx.
All the page breaks which you deleted are back.
You remove the page breaks again.
Save as .docx.
Open the .docx.
All the page breaks which you deleted are back.
Repeat until you lose your mind.

You can also open the docx, correct the page breaks, save as .odt, document 
looks fine. You open again as .docx, the page breaks are back again.

Copy paste into a new document does not fix.

If you open the .docx document in Office 2010 it looks the way it is supposed 
to look, the page breaks are gone.
You save it as docx in Office 2010.
You open it in LO again, and finally the page breaks are gone, you can even 
save it again, and the page breaks STAY gone, as it should have been with LO in 
first place.
