            Bug ID: 135883
           Summary: Opening a DOCX with footnotes with Character used
                    instead of automatic numbering duplicates this
                    character before footnote text
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: mikekagan...@hotmail.com

Opening a DOCX with footnotes which use Character instead of automatic
numbering, the footnote text gets prepended with a copy of the character.

1. In a new Writer document, insert a footnote using Insert->Footnote and
Endnote->Footnote or Endnote...
2. In the dialog, choose (*) Character, and put e.g. "a" there. Click OK.
3. Save the document as DOCX.
4. Test with some different application, e.g. MS Word, that the document is
correct, and the footnote has only the "a" mark and no text.
5. Open the document in Writer

=> the footnote has "a" mark, and "a" character as the footnote's text.

Saving the document, the character gets written there. Repeated open-save-close
will multiply the copies of the character.
