When opening a document that was net to restart footnote numbering on each page, if the document is saved as a DOCK then it reverts to continuous numbering. If the document was saved as an ODT document then it opens correctly and footnote numbering is, correctly, per page. "Per Page" footnote numbering is net under the Tools menu item. The problem is easily reproduced by inserting any footnote on page 1 and on page 2 of a document and saving the document. In an ODT document numbering will be start with 1 on each page when the file is reopened. But when reopening a DOCK document, footnote numbering will continue from the previous page.
please upload a test .ODT file with such numbering so we can exactly retest your same scenario saving it to .DOCX
Created attachment 116974 [details] Sample ODT file Works correctly with "per page" footnote numbering as an ODT file, but opens with continuous footnote numbering if saved and re-opened as a DOCX file.
Reproduced up to 5.0, this never worked fine. Steps: - set "Per Page" footnote numbering in Writer (under the Tools) - create 2 footnotes on 2 pages - save as DOCX - reopen DOCX Expected: footnotes start from 1 on each page Reproduced: footnotes continue from the previous page Saving to DOC works fine, DOCX problem only.

Justin, since you are fresh from Bug 43370 I cc you here to take a look, if you could. Thank you.
(In reply to Timur from comment #3) > Saving to DOC works fine, DOCX problem only. Saving to DOC seems fine when round-tripping in LibreOffice, but in MSWord 2003/2013 it is treated as document numbering for some reason. I think DOCX doesn't even attempts to export FTNNUM_*

created bug 105381 for continuous numbering in DOC format (for MSWord only)
