Comment 17 for bug 153338

My real test case is a 450-page document with 214 images (Visio, jpg, gif) and lots of cross-references that was originally created in MS-Word 2000. Unfortunately, I cannot release that. I tried to copy the "offending" pages into a new document, but then the problem didn't show up anymore.

The problem seems to be known as a "layout loop" where images are jumping back and forth between two adjacent pages.

After importing the doc into OOo 2.3, the images were either anchored "to paragraph" or "to character". Now I anchored everything consistently "as character" and that solved the problem for me.

If OOo 2.3.1 is more robust in this aspect, then why create a new bug here? Won't this version be released in Ubuntu eventually? It's mostly a bug fix release anyway.
