Hi, Thanks for your bug report ( https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58573).
Unfortunately, there is no justified vertical alignment in LibreOffice. You can solve this problem with correct page space height (and removing the extra spaces between the paragraphs). For example, 12 pt body text and 50 lines need 12 * 1.15 (default factor of the line height in LibreOffice) * 50 = 690 pt = 690/72 = 9.583". Set the page margins to leave 9.584" for the page space, and the footnote and the body text will be aligned correctly. Use also register-true body text (see page and paragraph settings) and frames anchored to the top or the bottom of the page space. To simplify this process, I suggest a new behavior in the page setting dialog: checking the register-true check box or modification its reference style could “round” margin heights for the correct (“register-true”) page space size. Using the 12 pt reference style of the previous example, 2-2 cm top and bottom margins of an A4 page (21 cm x 29,70 cm) will be ~0.5mm-0.5mm narrower automatically: ((29.7/2.54)*72 - 12*1.15 * round((((29.7-2*2)/2.54)*72)/(12*1.15)))/72*2.54 3.897833333333331 instead of 4 cm. This little modification (1.94-1.94 cm top and bottom margins instead of 2-2cm in this example) will eliminate the big justification problem of the page text and the footnotes and frames anchored to the page text area. Other UI option is a new button for this task.
