Description David Nash 2021-06-17 07:25:59 UTC
Description:
A text document created in Word (various versions) and saved as RTF is then opened in LibreOffice. Some of the footnotes appear to be imported as separate footnotes but lacking a number (both calling number in the main text, and reference number preceding the footnote). The footnote counter is not incremented (not until the next correctly imported footnote).  In a Word document with 134 footnotes, about 12 here and there were affected in this way.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open 'fn test.rtf' in MS Word, to see there is a footnote numbered 1
2. open 'fn test.rtf' in LibreOffice to see there is a footnote with no number


Actual Results:
there is a footnote with no number

Expected Results:
a footnote numbered 1 in the main text, and at the start of the footnote


Reproducible: Sometimes


User Profile Reset: No

This bug is about imported footnote not receiving numbering.
Bug 107413 is about a footer not getting imported.
