--- Comment #2 from Luke Kendall <luke.kendall at gmail.com> ---
Yes, but I haven't found clear documentation on 'register true' either, and I
don't think it helps in making the calculation. I'm guessing I'd still need to
just try it out on a reasonably long (ipsem lorum) document to see whether or
not there was a spill on page 50 or 100 or 200, and would have to visually
inspect every page to spot an occurrence.

Based on your response and thinking about it some more, I appreciate that it
would of course depend on the font, and potentially the font size within that
font too. But Writer must know the values (since it does the
typesetting/layout), then providing some way for the user to actually discover
the numbers would be enough - that way at least they could perform the
calculations.
I guess the info would also have to include how subscripts and superscripts
might change the numbers if the user happened to use them, too.
The trouble is that at the moment it's a total black box and the user has no
information other than how the text is laid out on the page in the end.

>From what you've said though Regina, I should change this from a request for
more documentation (which can't really provide it), into an enhancement request
for Writer to provide this info somehow?
