            Bug ID: 133334
           Summary: [FILESAVE] Saving as .docx generates spurious page
                    breaks
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.2.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Zip file with two short sample documents

Saving a document as .docx causes and extra spurious page break to be inserted
on or soon after the 1st page following manual page breaks.

By examining the XML produced, I found spurious <w:sectPR>...</w:sectPR> XML
that causes the additional page breaks to be inserted. Examining the XML of the
source .odt, I was unable to see anything that might lead to an extra page
break.

The first spurious page break is after the text "letting any other speak who
wished to." in the Prologue.
The second spurious page break is after the text "Calmly, he returned to
studying the orphanage records."

The .docx conversion also changes the layout by causing page spills in places
they weren't before, but I consider that a minor nuisance.

Please see the attached source document WTKDP-BadDocxGen.odt and the bad .docx
file generated by Save As from:
