Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 46917
WW8 : page orientation wrong after section break
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:25:57 UTC
[see issue 46915] page 6 is orientated as landscape in msword, as portrait in oo.org i was unable to reproduce this on a striped down document unfortunately...
MRU->FLR: I'll send you an excerpt of the document. The second page should be in landscape. It looks, that the import ignores the section break at the end of page 1.
Considering the effort, the priority, the risk and our resource planning I've to retarget this issue to OOo Later.

I think I have something to add this page orientation problem. I checked issues 24474, 7894, 8449 and 42790. They all refer to this page orientation problem. I think that I have a concrete testcase to add here. Please be patient and I will go through it.
1. open Microsoft Word 2002 (10.6802.6735) SP 3 2. File => New ( or Ctrl + N) 3. phases 4-7 is creation of the document "1_WORD_sections__1_to_6.rtf" 4. insert => Break => section break types => Next page 5. File => Page setup => Orientation => Potrait / Landscape Repeat phases 4-5 and you have different sections => ____________________________ (section 1: portrait, made in Word 2002 (10.6802.6735) sp 3) (section 2: landscape, made in Word 2002 (10.6802.6735) sp 3) (section 3: portrait, made in Word 2002 (10.6802.6735) sp 3) (section 4: landscape, made in Word 2002 (10.6802.6735) sp 3) (section 5: portrait, made in Word 2002 (10.6802.6735) sp 3) (section 6: landscape, made in Word 2002 (10.6802.6735) sp 3) and you have text waiting to be separated: (section 1B: landscape, will be made in OpenOffice 2.0.3.)

It seemed that OpenOffice 2.0.3 created in one phase different portrait/ landscape than in the first test 79. is this somewhat randomized feature? 80. interesting - very interesting
