Black squares

Microsoft Word has had a bug for decades where paragraph numbers suddenly get replaced by black squares. Libreoffice works to recover the file.

Anyone who uses Word for publishing is crazy, display the same file on different versions of Word or even different computer and the output formatting will be significantly different. Inadequate format control is why Wordperfect hung on in the legal niche
