Description Hermann Rochholz 2020-08-09 10:41:39 UTC
Description:
I've running here 2 versions:


The point:
I write a document with about 250 Pages, ~A5 small pages.
The portable version works well. It worked also better in a previous portable Version; some days ago I updated.

But when I load the document which has been previously edited by Portable Version  with "standard Version" - the document has a different layout. This costed me much time, because I did not see the problem. 
Always thje document was screwed up: 2 pages more, different hyphenation.
Especially the hyphenation of the standard version is IMO a real desaster (sorry). Because of that I nearly switched to LaTeX because hyphenation is much better. 
And in LaTeX it's possible to define the hyphenation of specific words at the beginning of the document.

In some cases (Sorry, no example ad hoc available) it is NOT possible to make a correct hypenation. In this case I always re-formulated the text - no joke!

In the portable Version it's much better. 
Therefore I have to use only this version.
 
The hyphenation table is new german in both cases. 
Any idea to find the inconsistency/bug(whatever)?

Testcase? I cannot distribute this document globally.
Only with PN.

Kind regards to developer team. Great job!
In my job I have to work with MS word (I write technical manuals). 
There are so many bugs and no way to address them. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load into different versions of LO Writer


Actual Results:
Described above

Expected Results:

I cannot explain why it's the case.
Maybe(?)it suffers from different rounding errors.
As I know MS Word has this problem: 
Everything is calculated back from Inch to Centimeter and this causes trouble. 

Only an idea. It's not a "big bug", but it's strange that one document being loaded in two similar versions provides a different layout.
IMHO this shouldn't be the case.

OK-
I found the error: It was the hyphenation.
(I submitted the bug of ugly hyphenation half a year ago but there was no solution) 

In the standard german version the hyphenation did not work correct. 
And this causes 268 pages instead of 260 (when the pages are full),
the portable version worked correct, the standard version not. 
Now I reinstalled hyphenation and it works similar for both versions. 
Therefore I cannot reproduce now by myself. 

I think it can be closed.
