@ Jaise James
Which OS used?
Comment 4 Jaise James 2012-05-24 05:55:19 UTC
Windows Xp & libreoffice 3.5.4rc1.
Comment 5 sasha.libreoffice 2012-05-24 06:16:24 UTC
Thanks for additional information. Reproduced in 3.5.3 on Windows XP and 7
It is Experimental function specific bug
to enable this: Tools->Options->LibreOffice->General->Enable experimental (unstable) features.
in 3.3.4 and 3.4.2 still not reproducible

Steps to reproduce:
0. Start Calc and enter something in first cell
1. select this cell and press Ctrl-C
2. Start Writer
3. Press Ctrl-Shift-V and select "Formatted RTF"
Comment 6 Rainer Bielefeld Retired 2012-10-01 04:28:13 UTC
NOT reproducible with attached sample document and Server Installation of "LibreOffice 3.5.1.2 German UI/Locale [Build-ID: dc9775d-05ecbee-0851ad3-1586698-727bf66] on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit).

I open document, double click text box text, select all with <control+a> and paste text to beginning of page with <control+v>, page keeps a4 with 20mm margin all around. 

Any Ideas?
Comment 7 sasha.libreoffice 2012-10-01 06:24:51 UTC
It is Experimental function specific bug
reproduced in 3.5.5 and 3.6.1 on Fedora 64 bit
May be users should not enable "Experimental functions". But usually they enable this option to see on new functionality and after this forget to disable this option again.
May be LO should disable this option automatically on next start.

Thanks for fixing this bug
Comment 15 Roman Eisele 2012-10-16 15:55:41 UTC
Thank you for fixing this, too!

If I am not completely wrong, this issue is a part of the symptoms of bug 43869, see comment #2 there. So I add this present bug to the “Depends on” field of bug 43869, in order to make the progress achieved here also visible there.

If we now could fix the other parts of bug 43869, we would be even happier ... ;-)

Comment 18 Roman Eisele 2012-10-23 09:58:43 UTC
VERIFIED as FIXED:

With “Enable experimental (unstable) features” checked and following the steps given in comment #5, I can still reproduce this issue with
  LOdev 3.7.0.0.alpha0+ (build ID: c252694; pull time: 2012-10-12 22:05:41),
but I can no longer reproduce it with
  LOdev 3.7.0.0.alpha0+ (Build ID: 370m0(Build:0); pull time: 2012-10-21
  10:01:47).
The page layout is no longer changed by pasting formatted text in RTF format.
Tests done on Mac OS X 10.6.8 (Intel).

@ Miklós:
Thank you very much for fixing this issue!
