Ramon Almeida <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #2 from Ramon Almeida <[email protected]> --- OS: Windows 10 OpenOffice 4.1.2 Build: 9781 I was able to reproduce this bug following Andrew's steps with some slight modifications. Steps: 1. Type about 2 pages of characters in 12 pt font. (I just pressed the letter "T" until I had a couple of lines and then copy and pasted until I had 2 pages.) 2. Press Ctrl + A to select all the text. 3. Change the font to 999. 4. Record the page number on the bottom left corner of the page. 5. Change the font back to 12. 6. Change the font back to 999. 7. Confirm that the numbers are different when they should be the same. Details worth noting: I noticed that it is not necessary to change the font to such a big number like 999. This will unnecessarily stress your computer. After a certain number, the program only outputs one character per page. So anything bigger will still use the same amount of pages. This number tends to be around 400 or 500 depending on the width of the character. I noticed this when I switched the font size from something like 500 to 900 and the page numbers did not change. (Note: This only works with most letters. But when you try to do it with a letter like "I" which has a small width you would need to go to a really big font size in order to only see one letter per page.) The reason why I find this worth mentioning is because this can help you know if the page number is accurate when working with big fonts. When you work with a big font that only allows one character per page, you can Ctrl + A to select all the text and go to tools > word count. The number of characters should equal the number of pages. (Again, this is only when you are working with huge fonts that only allows one character per page.) Another important detail is that the number of pages of text you need in order to see the bug will depend on how fast your system is. On a slower computer, I could replicate the bug with only one page of text. On a faster computer it took me 2 pages. What usually happens after you switch to a large font is the page numbers will start to increase and then it will stop. Sometimes after you move the scroll bar, the page numbers will change and only after this will it show the correct number of pages. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the issue.
