Description Tobias Burnus 2012-05-03 05:46:57 UTC 
Follow up to bug 37012.

The DOCX file (attachment 46479 [details]) contains a footer which looks in Microsoft Word 2003 SP3 as follows:

    DRAFT                        1               Customer’s Initials ______

In LibreOffice 3.5.1.2, the result is:

  1
  DRAFT	                                         Customer’s Initials ______


Position:

In MSO, the page number is in a frame and located at the center of the line - sharing the baseline with "DRAFT ...".

In LO, the page number is directly in the footer (and not in a frame) and separated from the "DRAFT ..." by a line break.

In MSO, the settings frame settings for the page number are: wrapping = around, width = auto, height = auto, horizontal position = center relative to margin, distance from text = 0. Vertical position = 0cm relative to paragraph, distance from text = 0cm. Move with text = true, lock anchor = false.

Same result with 3.5.3.2.

If one looks at the file "word/footer2.xml", one sees the following. The first block is in a frame - the second one is the normal foot-note text

<w:ftr>
 <w:p w:rsidR="00DD70C3" w:rsidRDefault="00DD70C3">
  <w:pPr>
    <w:pStyle w:val="Footer"/>

Comment 2 Joel Madero 2012-10-30 18:46:39 UTC 
Confirmed, footers do not look the same. Compared Microsoft Excel 2007 to LibO 3.6.1.2. 

Marking as NEW and prioritizing.

Normal: Can prevent high quality work and/or require not using a major feature (footers). Also, compatibility issues where the document will look different on MS vs. LibO.

High: Footers relatively common, professional work requires this and with the growth of .docx this could be a big issue for our business and academic users.
Comment 3 Samuel Mehrbrodt (allotropia) 2014-01-23 14:05:56 UTC 
Confirmed in 4.2.
Comment 4 Mike Kaganski 2014-04-20 03:10:39 UTC 
Still REPRODUCIBLE with 4.2.2.1 under Win7x64.
NOT reproducible anymore with 4.2.3.1 and later.

As the specific commit is unknown, resolwing as WORKSFORME.

Thank you for participating in LO improvement!
