Created attachment 197240 [details] Example file from Word 2016 Attached example file has a table at the bottom of the first page. In Word, the last line of the table is rendered at the top of the second page, but in Writer it is still at the bottom of the first. Interesting behavior in Word: the table is followed by a paragraph with a page break. If the page break is removed, the table is rendered on the first page, like in Writer. 1. Open attached file -> The "Lorem15" table row is at the top of the second page in Writer, and not at the bottom of the first like in Word Version: 25.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: dd41459378bca78a18f32e61bfac77aa48fabb8d CPU threads: 14; OS: Windows 10 X86_64 (10.0 build 19045); UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: hu-HU (hu_HU); UI: en-US Calc: default and the same back to 3.3
Created attachment 197241 [details] The document in Word and Writer
Created attachment 197242 [details] The same example file without page break Removing the page break makes the table row rendered at the bottom of the first page in Word, and the next two paragraphs as well, so the document is now 1 page long instead of 3.
Created attachment 197243 [details] The page break less document in Word and Writer - now both look the same
One more detail about the page break: it is a section break, which has some customized 3 cm margins (all of top, bottom, left, right). If I reduce the top margin of the section break to 2.5 cm, the Lorem15 row is rendered at the bottom of the first page in Word 2016 as well.
