(A) The doc in question has no images.. so that can be ruled out. 
(B) Nice, but what about RTF paste & DOC export.. what makes that it fitting on
exact 954 pages.. It would be consistent.. expect of data got lost.. 
And it would matter to 2/3 pages.. not the 25 pages.. quite a lot!

(A) Tell that the author the specific document attachment 161979
(B) Quite some documents with 450 - 750 pages around.. Or its the advice to use
hard page break on every page.. to prevent some page flow issue..

The footnotes in the bug doc are the likely the cause.. and let there be an
overall issue with footnotes + layout.. 

And this still is a regression; as it has been working before, not by an
incident.. it worked until 5.3 came along.. and someone broke it.

This can happen on every file opening.. and this is not the first report about
something fishy with the page numbering..

But there is always an argument.. different font rendering, different layout
because of anchoring.. to many pages.. cross page tables.. 

In this case someone obviously broke something.. and is not a minor shift in
pages. 
Nearly everything is ruled out in this bug, except for many pages and footnotes
