Page numbering different for PDF and DOCX

The details are in the following thread:

https://forum.literatureandlatte.com/t/page-numbering-is-different-for-pdf-and-docx/39173/1

Is there some reason to be posting this as a new thread when it is merely a link to an existing one?

I assume the different forum: tech support / bug hunt.

Never know if an issue originally in tech support needs to be highlighted in the bug forum if it is subsequently identified as a bug.

It’s perfectly fine if that’s the case. A lot of bug reports start out as genuine questions, and if we find it confusing or think people will have a hard time finding it when searching for the problem they are facing, we’ll move the thread or mirror it.

Thanks. I have a similar thread that is in the tech support forum but which I now believe is a bug, and I haven’t known whether to re-list it. Keith saw the thread before xmas and asked for a sample project, which I have supplied. I know Keith must be busy, but he has responded to later bugs, so I assume he isn’t working through posts by oldest-to-newest date order. I have bumped the thread, but know it disappears down the list of Active Topics pretty quickly, so I am not sure if he will see it again. I’m not fussed about the issue as I know I can get round it post compile, but it might be something Keith would like to squash, especially if it trips up any other coding issues.

I think the problem is invoked by MD / MMD compile options. Tried it on various projects and they all exhibit the same issue. Though it still might be user error, of course.

Indeed, if something is in tech support and it starts to look like a bug, it’s fine to post it over here (although it’s best to include instructions for a reproduction case here instead of just a link, so that we can get straight to looking at the bug rather than trying to find the problem in pages of an existing thread).

There is no guarantee that someone at L&L will see a post in the Tech Support area, but we check everything in the Bug Report forum.

The page numbering bug should be fixed for the next update.

All the best,
Keith

Appreciate the response and advisory.

All the best.
