Created attachment 169675 [details] DOCX to reproduce the error If the document has a gutter specified and the page border is given relative to text edge, then the border is wrongly drawn. The border is correct, if gutter is set to 0 in Word.

Regina: thanks for this sample, very useful one. So Word has 2 modes for border description, the distance can be measured "form text" or "from page". I was aware of this, but I was not aware that my simple sw/qa/extras/ooxmlexport/data/gutter-top.docx sample accidentally used the "from page" mode. The reason your sample is broken is because it uses "from text". So it points out an important problem: similar to how normal borders are handled (when there is no gutter), the "from page" part of the gutter handling should happen at DOCX import/export time and Writer layout should continue to measure borders "from text". I'll look into this.
Miklos Vajna committed a patch related to this issue.

The patch should be included in the daily builds available at https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/ in the next 24-48 hours. More information about daily builds can be found at: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Testing_Daily_Builds Affected users are encouraged to test the fix and report feedback.
No backport, gutter margin is master-only.
