LibreOffice 4.4.2.2 rendering
Comment 4 geoffroy+dev 2015-05-07 09:55:49 UTC
Tested version: 4.4.2.2
Tested OS: Windows 7 and Windows 10 build 10041

The rendering is still incorrect (please check attachment), but the situation has improved since 4.2.0.4.
Comment 5 geoffroy+dev 2015-11-29 08:26:53 UTC
I have reproduced the test using Libreoffice 5.0.3 on Windows 7 and Linux, and the situation has significantely improved.

However, the document is not rendered as expected. (I'm attaching Libreoffice 5.0.3 rendering to the ticket FYI).

Libreoffice 5.1.0 beta1 buildfix1 rendering

Here is the rendering produced by LibreOfficeDev 5.1.0.0 beta1 buildfix1 for Windows x64 (build ID: 13010a13177025f633c9b85adcb3edf6920e44e3)

The issues are the same as the one I've seen with LibreOffice 5.0.3.

I'm noticing 3 remaining problems here:
 * On page 1, two "blocks" of data are displayed when they're not expected to.
 * On page 3, the "Titre 2" heading numbers color is incorrect.
 * On the last page, the position of the logo is incorrect.

The table of contents (page 2) seems to be updated automatically on load, which makes the bookmark error to disappear.
According to me, this behaviour improvement is out of the bug scope.

Problems with rendering exist, but:
- it's highly unlikely that any bugs of type "multiple problems/bad rendering", will be fixed
- each issue (section break, paragraph break, text box, picture...) should be reported separately, after a search for already reported bugs
- if bugs don't exist, they should be reported separately, even if they happen with the same file

Briefly:
- * On page 1, two "blocks" of data are displayed when they're not expected to - textbox has negative absolute position outside the page, which LO doesn't read well
- * On page 3, the "Titre 2" heading numbers color is incorrect - looks like bug 77797
- * On the last page, the position of the logo is incorrect - looks like header size problem, or related to sections, bug 64372

So, this shouldn't have been confirmed at all. Please close.
