Description B. 2023-02-08 10:21:57 UTC
I sent a file written with LibreOffice, saved in docx and with footnotes for reviewing. The file was saved in docx and sent. When I got back the file with comments and track changes the footnotes' order was a complete mess, and whenever I re-opened the file the order also was changed. I never encountered that problem before, I use Libre Office Version 7.4.5.1 and Ubuntu 20.04 Mate 1.26.
Appreciate any help
B.

Thanks, B.
I think this is probably a duplicate of bug 153255, but can you please provide an example document for us to test?
Thank you!

Dear Stéphane,
thank you for quick response. Yes, indeed, I encountered the same problem as Mr. Carvalho.
My file is rather big, so I did not want to bother you. But trying to make it smaller, I deleted the first pages, saved it. When trying to re-open it, I got the following error message:

SAXException: [word/document.xml line 2]: opening and ending tag mismatch: rPr line 2 and ins at/run/build/libreoffice/sax/source/fastparser/fastparser/ocxx:615

Maybe this is of help. Afterwards the content of the file was gone...

I am using the German version of LO 7.5.0.3. via Flatpak on my desktop and LO 7.4.5.1 on my laptop downloaded via the regular Ubuntu repository. Same problem...

I hope this is enough info. I never had to report a bug before, after all it is a great software.

Thanks again
Bülent
