Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 89627
Paginating error due to "keep" attribute
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:44:35 UTC
In some documents there appears an empty page in the middle of document where it MUST NOT be. Sometimes it's possible to delete it by reformatting the text above or bellow, but often not. I've got an example but I don't know where to send it.
Created attachment 53758 [details] Empty page after page 2 MUST NOT be empty, but must contain text from page 4.
As a workaround, you could switch off the "keep with next" attribute for the first paragraph on page -2- (in Format.Paragraph.Text flow). MRU->FME: the "keep" attribute seems to be evaluated initially incorrect. When switching it off for the mentioned paragraph and back on, document looks as expected.

There are some documents with this error where the workaround suggested doesn't work at all. It's very sad, because we planned to use the OpenOffice as the text editor for the government of Moscow City. It would be a great promotion for OpenOffice, but we cannot use it because this error. :(
In many documents the workaround doesn't work, so we cannot use the writer at all. We cannot afford to have two different editors: one for creating documents, and another one for those documents which couldn't be prepared in first one with no errors. The priority must be much higher. It's critical error.
