Found an old version of Windows 2KPro on one of my virtual machines that still has OOo 3.3.0 OOO330m20 (build:9567) and opening the .docx file in that demonstrates what you probably are experiencing: only 5 pages, dual columns in pages 2-5, and no References and Biography page. Again, this appears to be a a regression between 3.3.0 and OOo-Dev (3.4.0). Given the OOo - Apache conversion I'm not even sure if you can file a bug report any longer (at least I've no idea how). But hopefully someone from Apache will pick up on this post and see if they can pass it along to their devs. If I've time tomorrow I'll try to remember to file a bug report with LO. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to [email protected] For additional commands send email to [email protected] with Subject: help
