Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 20524
Master Document Fails to import Headers & Footers
Last modified: 2014-03-20 18:32:20 UTC
When I set up a custom style in a text document that has a header and a footer I save that file. I then open a Master Document and import the file. The text imports but the Header and Footer do not import. This is either a code error or a user error (probably). However if it is a user error, it is not because I haven't tried to learn how to do it. In addition to on line help, I am using the Solveig Haugland/Floyd Jones book OpenOffice.org 1.0 Resource Kit book. I can send copies of the files upon request. All the best. CaptCadwallader@WNDD.ORG
Created attachment 9855 [details] Executive Summary for a report with Header & Footer

Created attachment 9948 [details] same file, but this have no problem with turkish
The problem is not importing into MS Office. The problem is importing into a Master Document. Open OOo 1.1.0 and go to Files-New-Master document. The Navigator dialog should open. If not hit F5. Then in the Navigator go to the fourth button from the left. This is the insert file button. Hit this button and one of the three options should be File. Use this button to import the file I sent you "Executive Summary.swx". What should happen is that the file is imported into the Master Document with the Header and Footer. This is according to the documentation. The Master Document is used to import sections of a report, where each section can have a different Header and/or Footer. I am trying to created a Master Document where on the title page there will be no Header or Footer. All of the following Headers are the same, and the footer varies by section, Executive Summary, Hawthorne Army Ammunition Depot, Resource Utilization, Tourism, Industrial, Reform of the Business Process and Conclusions. Unfortunately, I can not make the Master Document import the headers or footers. Notice, that at no time am I using Microsoft Office. All the work is being done in Open Office. Any help will be appreciated. All the best.
