[Discussion/Review Request] The MSO Word interoperability issues solution on page border

Hi, Community:

Inside AOO Writer, there are some MSO Word interoperability issues on the
 page border stuff.

After the first step investigation, something show that it is not a simple
or defect level work, so I wrote a document about the issue and possible
solution on it, and post into Wiki. Here is the link:

http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Writer/MSInteroperability/PageBorder

For you discuss and review, thanks for your kindly comments and supporting.

Wonderful investigation and comparison report on the page border function
area.I prefer to fix "Importing Case 4" and defer "Importing Case 3"
because I think  "Importing Case 3"  is a rare case and its priority should
be low.To the exporting cases,the focus is on exporting Aoo Writer's page
border to MS Word because of the flexible range of  margin value in
Writer.For Aoo Writer's page border can keep good fidelity by default
setting when being exported to MS Word,"Exporting Case 4" is not an urgent
improvement requirement currently.And we need careful review and discussion
whether we need to change the border behavior to be same with MS Word,I
think it enough to keep a record on the feature difference and fix
"Exporting Case 2" only in this release.Thanks.

very good analysis and presentation of the results and conclusion.

I have added some background information about the Apache OpenOffice model 
regarding page margin and page border to the wiki page.

I am looking forward to the corresponding changes in our Microsoft Word 
import/export filter component. I am volunteering to review the changes when 
they are available.

Best regards, Oliver.
