I set up a new page with a very large size, 126cm x 70cm in landscape mode. When I started typing, every character appeared on a new line, as if the right margin had been reached. After I reduced the width from 126cm to 125cm, everything worked fine. As far as I'm aware Writer should be able to handle pages of 300cm X 300cm, but clearly there is a problem with very large pages. Perhaps an integer overflow, setting the sign to negative? That's what I can imagine.
I could confirm this bug with LO 5.4.2.2 I choosed Landscape (width 126cm; height 70cm; default margins) and could only type with a width of 6cm. I changed to 125cm and the width of the text was reduced to 5 cm. Everything was fine with 119 cm. So it is al little different to the original bug report. Version: 5.4.2.2 (x64) Build ID: 22b09f6418e8c2d508a9eaf86b2399209b0990f4 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 6.19; UI render: GL; Locale: de-DE (de_DE); Calc: group
I used margins of 5cm, that can explain the differences.

I couldn't reproduce it with landscape and 300 cm x 200 cm => WORKSFORME Version: 6.1.4.2 (x64) Build-ID: 9d0f32d1f0b509096fd65e0d4bec26ddd1938fd3 CPU-Threads: 4; BS: Windows 10.0; UI-Render: Standard; Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE); Calc: group threaded
The problem still exists. present version: Version: 6.1.4.2 (x64) I made a new document, 126 x 70 cm (landscape), with 5 cm margins all around. After typing 2 or 3 characters the cursor jumps to a new line.
Dirk, sorry you're right! I also still can confirm that problem
Still reproducible in Version: 7.2.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) Build ID: c0eee433e079d8e3413f4691607e075b99af92b0 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19042; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: cs-CZ (cs_CZ); UI: en-US Calc: threaded It depends of how big is margin. I set all margin to 0 cm and the line wrapping is with 115,60 cm. With 115.59 cm it works ok. When I set only left margin to 5 cm, then it works ok with 120.59 cm and bad working with 120.60 cm. (the 5 cm more). When I set also right margin, then it is more by the margin size.
Reproducible also in LibreOffice 3.3.0 OOO330m19 (Build:6) tag libreoffice-3.3.0.4 So I am setting version to OOo
