I just noticed that I had used Post rather than Get, in the submitted form. Changing Post to Get makes no difference.

Dieter, I now use LO 7.5.3.2 X64 on Linux, which works correctly. I no longer use Adobe pdf Reader or Foxit. I found a workaround, which got over the problem. Unfortunately, I do not remember what it was. The problem can now be cleared.
