A while ago I posted what is below and didn't see any replies. No
problem because there is no real problem, with an ugly workaround.
However, I am wondering if I am the only person struggling with master
documents.

Hi everyone
For some manuals I use master documents with satellites in Writer.
After opening such a file it always contains empty spaces and even empty
pages. It took a while to figure out how to get rid of these layout errors.
What I do:
* Open document
* Update index
* Update selection for every satellite (using navigator)
* Update index again
* Export to PDF for printing and distribution
To get an idea I've temporary placed the following screen dumps on
http://media.vanderworp.org/.dot/.lo/ :
1_lo_after_open.png
2_lo_after_update_index.png
3_lo_after_update_selection.png
This solution is highly complex and unfriendly (some of these masters
contain a lot satellites), I consider not properly calculating the
layout a bug.
The documents themselves have strict style rules and only contain
bitmaps and svg's.
I can live with this solution but... Are there better solutions?
