Description Grobe 2023-02-07 20:11:46 UTC
Version: 7.2.4.1 (x86) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 27d75539669ac387bb498e35313b970b7fe9c4f9
CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19044; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win
Locale: nb-NO (nb_NO); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

Excel file:
- must have header and footer defined
- be encrypted (i.e. only opens/show when opened and logged in the organization)
- Have only one sheet
- The contents should be suited to print on two papers
- Two page styles, only one is used.


Steps to reproduce:
* Open file in Excel 365, save it as ods
* Open that new ods file in Calc
* Define two areas for printing (i.e. one sheet - two pages on printer)
* Define five upper rows being repeated at print
* Export to pdf (toggle print preview may work as well for this)

The issue: Turns out that on first page, the footer and header is missing. On page 2, both footer and header are working normally.


Workaround (this also makes the issue very hard to reproduce) :
In the menu for editing footer and header, do a minor change at the text (e.g. add a space at end), and then reverse the change manually. Do the same for footer and header.
After this, the pdf export or print will produce expected output - now header and footer also appear on first page.

Thank you for your report, Grobe.

Could you please test it with a currently-supported version of LibreOffice (7.4 or 7.5), and let us know if you still see the issue?

Thank you!
