Hi Kevin,

Tested on Linux Mint with 4.2.5 and 4.3.1 and it turned out fine.
Comment 5 Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired) 2014-07-31 05:29:23 UTC 
Tested in Windows 7 with 4.3.0.4 and also fine.

I reset my user profile and tried again, now can not reproduce any more.
It's wired that I restore my previous profile from trash, but still no reproduce...

Set to WORKSFORME by now.
Comment 7 Kevin Suo 2014-07-31 09:29:54 UTC 
Well: I got the reason.

It's not footnote issue, it's: 
"Tools - Options - LibreOffice Writer - Printing - Comments: On page margin".

When this option is enabled, then when you export a document to pdf page margins are changed, * no matter whether the document has comments or not* ! 

Will file a new bug on this.
