customFootnotes_word2003.pdf: how it looks in MSO 2003
These DOCX and RTF documents were composed/saved by MS Word 2003.
Confirmed in Version: 6.0.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: e0b6a4a2d2dec4e9614f27fc03f84b1c578028ec CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 4.8; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; Locale: ca-ES (ca_ES.UTF-8); Calc: group @Justin, * What does MS Word's own Save-as ODF .odt do with them? And is that format maintained with filter opening into LO Writer? Created attachment 134932 [details] tdf109382_customFootnote.rtf: hand-crafted, minimal RTF with complex custom footnote anchors RTF: The current implementation completely depends on the existence of \super (setting pCurrentBuffer = &m_aSuperBuffer) before the custom anchor. MSWord doesn't require \super, as demonstrated by this unit test example. This will require a creative solution. (The previous solution was already pretty creative...) If you can get this document to work properly, you probably have the correct implementation. RTF: the original 2011-06-29 implementation has changed slightly, but the general logic still holds. https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=fbdc98489973a33af4ef3f6ae072abe51716c564 RTF_FOOTNOTE: support custom marks Created attachment 134949 [details] tdf109382_customFootnote.docx: minimal DOCX with complex custom footnote anchor LO seems to automatically use the same mark for both the in-text and footnote. Of course, MSO normally does this too, but it doesn't seem to be an absolute requirement. Clicking in this DOCX's bottom mark links to the top one - but only on inside the first 6 characters which matches the size of the in-text anchor. These will be tough to fix since MS duplicates the mark in both formats. RTF: potential fix started at https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/41061 (In reply to Justin L from comment #8) > RTF: potential fix started at https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/41061 and abandoned.

Created attachment 134874 [details] customFootnotes.docx: the custom mark is duplicated in the footnote. When inserting a footnote in Word, there is a choice of a "custom mark" which can be multi-character. LO doesn't handle custom marks well. -DOCX: the mark is duplicated entirely in the footnote. -RTF: for multi-character marks, the first character is duplicated in the footnote. (For single-character marks, it seems to work OK.) 1.) Open the document and look at the footnote and endnote 2.) The first instance of "CUSTOM" and "FANCY" is a link and the second contains the character formatting. Inherited from OOo likely. Occurs in the oldest bibisect43all available to Ubuntu x64 16.04.
