Description: While exporting document to PDF link annotation has wrong Y coordingate (out of page area). That making the link effectively unusable and absent for users. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create document with footnote, make footnote body move to next page. 2. Export to PDF 3. Verify that footnote anchor in text is not clickable Actual Results: No link available. Clicking on footnote anchor does nothing. Expected Results: Clicking on footnote anchor should send user to target page with footnote body. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: With page Y dimension 841.889763779528 Y coordinate is out of page size 1627.489 % PDFPage::emit 4 0 obj <</Type/Page/Parent 8 0 R/Resources 15 0 R/MediaBox[0 0 595.303937007874 841.889763779528]/Group<</S/Transparency/CS/DeviceRGB/I true>>/Contents 5 0 R>> endobj % PDFWriterImpl::emitLinkAnnotations 7 0 obj <</Type/Annot/Subtype/Link/Border[0 0 0]/Rect[56.693 1627.489 60.257 1641.289]/Dest[4 0 R/XYZ 73.7 68.239 0]>> endobj
Created attachment 172745 [details] document to create pdf
Created attachment 172746 [details] document with broken link
841 - (-785.6) = 1627.489 Correct Y coordinate should be 785.6

Very nice to see already a fix, I set Assignee, I see that Georgy had a couple of them before. This one is somewhat duplicate to bug 38187, but better defined. I see that one-way link (number>text) is fixed, both for footnote and endnote. Please explain if you intend to fix also other way, text>number.
> Please explain if you intend to fix also other way, text>number. I plan to fix other way too (working on it), but that would be related to 38187 only.
Thanks. So you may mark this one Fixed. This was on my personal "annoying" list. And it was regression from 3.5, one-way worked in LO 3.4, so preBibisect.
Notes for unit test writers: Revert has to be done manually. PDF exports can be checked with pdfium, see for example sw/qa/extras/globalfilter/globalfilter.cxx
