Description Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired) 2015-09-08 07:07:00 UTC
Steps:
1) Open GB_2013.docx in attachment 105410 [details]
2) Notice that the page margins are 0.00 on all sides
3) Save As a new file
4) Open up the new file
5) Notice the page top and bottom margins are 1.00

Regression as this worked correctly in 4.1.6. The saved document also doesnt open in Word 2010 and gives the error 'Invalid parameter. Location: Part: /word/document.xml, Line: 2, Column: 0'.

Unfortunately this bug isn't bibisectable because of a separate bug that happens in the bibisect that prevents saving the file at all (infinite loop during save as). Marking as such.

This makes heavy use of continuous section breaks which are deadly for compatibility and page styles. (Page 2 starts with section 6.)

0pgMar.odt: minimal reproducer test when saving to .doc or .docx

I think the problem is in SW code handling sections, because writerfilter passes the top margin property all the way to unostyles.cxx. Likely, because everything is a default value, the property isn't being SET, and so is never exported.

The problem is avoidable by forcing a non-default value in PropertyMap.cxx
-Insert( PROP_TOP_MARGIN, uno::makeAny( std::max<sal_Int32>(nTopMargin, 0) ) );
+Insert( PROP_TOP_MARGIN, uno::makeAny( std::max<sal_Int32>(nTopMargin, 1) ) );

OK. Not at all related to SW internals. Simply export code ignoring defaults.  gerrit.libreoffice.org/59967 tdf#94009 ww8export: always export section margins

How it looks on 6.2

This is how it looks on 6.2 after save as...
As speaking about margins this are zero, it's perfect. But the document aspect changed.
