Description João Paulo 2015-05-27 04:43:13 UTC 
Running LibreOffice 4.4.3.2 on Windows Vista 64 bit, but this problem occurred on earlier versions such as OO.o 3.

Whenever you create a footnote and save the document as .doc or .docx, when Microsoft Word 2007/2010 opens it, the footnotes' lines always starts with a tab. It's sort of this:


An .odt file with a footnote.¹
-----
1 This footnote was saved on an .odt file and opened on LibreOffice Writer.

A .docx file with a footnote.¹
-----
1          This footnote was saved on a .docx file and opened on Microsoft Word.

This makes difficult round tripping documents between text processors because one needs to erase all the tabs LibreOffice inserted when exporting the document.
