Re: [libreoffice-users] Page breaks never get really deleted, bug shows when saving as docx.

Hi :)
Again a bug-report seems like a good plan.  DocX is apparently not properly supported in MS Office 
and there are differences between the way it is implemented in MSO 2007 and MSO 2010.  

This sort of problem is one of the reasons that people here recommend keeping an original in Odt 
format and only save a copy in some other format when you need to share the document with someone 
else that can't or won't install LibreOffice or OpenOffice or any of the other office suites or 
programs that do support the OpenDocument Format.  People are quite happy to install all sorts of 
extra programs to read Pdfs but then suddenly object to installing something to read Odfs.  This 
will change as the format is becoming more popular.

Regards from
Tom :)

You make a document.
You add page breaks.
You remove page breaks.
You save it (as .odt).
Open it.
The document appears to be correct.

Open the document, save as .docx.
Open the .docx.
All the page breaks which you deleted are back.
You remove the page breaks again.
Save as .docx.
Open the .docx.
All the page breaks which you deleted are back.
Repeat until you lose your mind.

You can also open the docx, correct the page breaks, save as .odt, document looks fine. You open 
again as .docx, the page breaks are back again.

Copy paste into a new document does not fix.

If you open the .docx document in Office 2010 it looks the way it is supposed to look, the page 
breaks are gone.
You save it as docx in Office 2010.
You open it in LO again, and finally the page breaks are gone, you can even save it again, and the 
page breaks STAY gone, as it should have been with LO in first place.
