          Issue ID: 128126
        Issue Type: DEFECT
           Summary: saving as a .doc file with starting page numbers other
                    than 1 if greater than 257 doesn't keep the format
           Product: Writer
           Version: 4.1.6
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 (lowest)
         Component: formatting

  Target Milestone: ---

When using Writer 4.1.6 on Windows 8.1 and saving as the .doc file format
(Microsoft Word XP version extension) and I am numbering the first page other
than 1 in the footer and that number is greater than 255, when I re-open the
file it has reset itself to 1.

I have played around with this and if you restart at 256, it resets to 1 (and
the dialog box on the format paragraph lists your starting page number as 0).
If you restart at 257, it resets to 1 (and the dialog box on the format
paragraph lists your starting page number as 1), but if you restart at 258, it
resets to 2 (and the dialog box on the format paragraph lists your starting
page number as 2). Thereafter, any number greater than 257 that you restart
numbering with, it resets to 0 + n where n is your start number - 254 in the
format paragraph dialog box upon reopening upon a save.

I saw someone's post that sounded similar about an issue around page # 255 but
I couldn't be sure by the description if this was the same issue.

Hopefully it's an easy fix!

Thanks!

Michael
