Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 24031
One long page.
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:38:26 UTC
I started typing and after a while I realized that Word indicated I was still on page 1/1. This seem incorrected so I Saved As to DOC format, FTPed it to a Windows machine and pulled it up in MS-Word. It showed 4 pages. I printed it just to make sure and I got 4 full pages. I went back to OF Word and tried inserting a manual Page Break. Still showed one long page. I check the Printer Settings. It is set to Generic Print, Paper U.S. Letter, Portrait.
There is a workaround. You have to do the Autoformat on your document if you want the pages to show right. The problem you mention I've seen on lots of .doc files. Yes, it is definitely a defact -- and an irritating one at that, since resaving as a .doc file produces something different than the original.
Please attach a document to verify and evaluate the problem.
HI->MRU: Seems to be a filter issue.
The problm is not reproducable. Please attach such an OO Writer document to this issue, which shows that the Page count does not work correctly in OO Writer. Otherwise we won't be able to duplicate/fix the problem.
Closed, because no response for long time.
