Save docx as odt: header and footer lost

When converting a docx to an odt, the header and footer are not present in the output document. Conversion to doc, pdf or pdf/a is fine.
Maybe this happens because the header and footer apply to the first page (Translated from dutch office version: File -> Page Setup -> Layout: Header/Footer settings: First page different)
Assuming you can reproduce the problem:

  • Will a fix for this issue be supplied? If so, when can I expect one?
  • Is there a workaround available which I can use for now?

I attached the source docx and the produced odt.

I’m finding that the header/footer doesn’t get lost entirely, but perhaps defaults to something: page number in the center of the header and Date in the center of the footer. This happens for regular headers/footers, not just first-page.
Is that what you find?

The issues you have found earlier (filed as WORDSNET-2823) have been fixed in this .NET update and this Java update.
