[Bug 903608]

 

Created attachment 54437
modified version of file to demonstrate a possible fix

modification of the paragraph style 'footnote characters' to remove the indent and modification of the applied character style 'footnote characters' to change font position from superscript to normal removes the problem. Settings based on the default footnote style on a new LO 3.4.4 document.

  3) What is expected to happen in LibreOffice Writer importing a Word
  created file via the Terminal:

  cd ~/Desktop && wget -c
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/903608/+attachment/2630995/+files/footnoteformattingbug_1.doc
  -O example.doc && lowriter -nologo example.doc

  on page 1 if one clicks immediately after superscript footnote 1 and
  begins to type, the characters are not superscript, as it would occur
  in Word.

  4) What happens instead is the characters are superscript as shown in
  https://launchpadlibrarian.net/87353347/libreofficeformattingbug.ogv

  WORKAROUND: Click immediately after the footnote and press
  Ctrl+Shift+P then begin typing as desired. This is documented at:
