Description Matthias Basler 2014-01-30 18:10:59 UTC 
Created attachment 93073 [details]
Blank page added between page 10 and 11 on loading document.

I took the liberty to create this bug issue as a copy of an issue file for AOO, since it can be reproduced on my LO 3.6.7.2 as well. I have not yet tested with newer versions of LO.

Basically, with larger documents having a somewhat more complex formatting, it can happen that, after closing and reopening a file, there are pages breaks visible on places where there used to be none and actually are none. It only takes some trigger to make LO recalculate the layout correctly and remove the non-existing page break: Such trigger could be that the user scrolls to this page or be it that the user inserts some line break in the previous paragraph.

Again, I take the liberty to attach the sample file by "rpolach" from the AOO issue, which demonstrates this nicely. If you insert a new line at the end of page 10 the following unintentional blank page will disappear.
It is a word document, but from my tests with AOO this issue *seems* not to be specific to the word import filter, but can happen with .odt files as well.

Hello Mattias,
I can reproduce this bug with 4.1.3.2 but I can't reproduce this bug with 4.2.0.4 so I think that it is fixed. 

I will set the status to "resolved works for me", could you retest this bug with 4.2?If the bug isn't fixed for you, please set the status to "reopend"

Thank you
