docx document that is displayed correctly in Word but not in Writer
This is a document that Word displays correctly while Writer doesn't. The footnote number should be displayed as a superscript, and not as a normal type.

This is a document created in Writer with the same problem
This is a .odt document created in Writer with the same problem, to prove that the issue happens independently of the document format. It is very easy to reproduce it: just insert a footnote and the number of it will be written as a normal type and not as a superscript (as shown in the screenshot).
You can very easily obtain that effect by editing the character style called "Footnote characters": on the "Position" tab select "Superscript". So this is not really a bug, it's just a matter of default options. Maybe this report should be set as an "enhancement request"? Thanks, I will do it, when creating a document in Libreoffice. Still, the problem remains for documents created in Office, like the one I've attached: the footnotes are displayed differently in Libreoffice. I have tried your solution, but it is not actually functional: with it, the WHOLE footnote becomes superscript, while only the number has to. Nevermind, I apologise, I edited the style "Footnote" and not "Footnote characters". I can confirm that this solves it. Only the issue of properly opening Word documents remains. |
