Description pammann 2003-07-15 11:40:01 UTC 
word option: Page Setup -> Line Numbers -> Add -> Restart each Page
without a header everything is ok! but with header or footer its like this:

[
  {
1   header
  }
1 Page 1
2
3 
4 hello world
]

[
  {
2   header  
  }
1 Page 2
2
3 eof
]

[ ] : One Page
{ } : Header

the line numbering in the page is ok, but on the header another
line numbering is choosen and this numbering does not restart at each
page.

1. would it be better to have the same line numbering like in the whole page:
[
  {
1   header
  }
2 Page 1
3
4 
5 hello world
]

Please Attach the documents which make this problem, so we can test
it.  (Without the documents, we cannot confirm the problem easily)
Don't forget to cut other part of the documents, so the file size is
small, but we still able to see the problem.

Please try using the latest OOo 1.1 Rc4, 
Your version already old enough, and many bug fixes since your version 
and 1.1 RC4. If the problem still happend in 1.1 RC4 please report back

MRU->AMA: this is like the problem we talked about a few weeks ago
(the way line numbers should act, when header/footers are available).
But in my opinion, header footers should never be intended in line
numbering, and not as Patrick proposed.
Comment 4 andreas.martens 2003-09-18 10:45:05 UTC 
Yes, I agree, lines inside header/footer shouldn't be numbered.

Zipped Word file - shows numbering problems
Comment 6 Unknown 2003-09-26 15:25:07 UTC 
I attached a file that is as small as I could get it in Word and show
the problem.

The header and footer areas have their own numbering, but even worse
is that the regular text area number restarts on every page, instead
of continuing on from before.
Comment 7 Unknown 2003-09-26 15:26:24 UTC 
Note that this was using RC5 on Windows 2000.
Comment 8 andreas.martens 2003-10-30 11:51:55 UTC 
Two bugs/problems:
1. Does it make sense to count line inside header/footer? Of course
you may disable it via paragraph style "header", but the idea is to
suppress line numbering in header/footer completely. This has be
decided. AFAIK we don't need line numbering inside header/footer for
interoperability or do we, Caolan?
2. An imported document seems always to have "Start each page" for
line numbering even the original says "Continous"?! An import problem,
hopefully easy to fix, Caolan?
Comment 9 caolanm 2003-10-30 12:07:25 UTC 
1. Word doesnt number anything in headers/footers with linenumbering,
so for interoperability its best disabled there.
2. Is known and done asissue #17547#
Comment 10 michael.ruess 2004-05-06 13:36:32 UTC 
minor compatibility issue, can be workarounded, thus targeted to "OO later".
