Bad conversion of some files with header and/or footer #75

Hi, first of all, thanks for your good work with this plugin

We have been experiencing some issues while converting files with header and/or footer, it doesn't happen with all the files, though

This is a known bug in the version of LibreOffice that this plugin is using, so the easiest solution is to upgrade to >7.2 (since 7.2 has some performance issues) to fix this behaviour

Here are some files so you can try yourself with the current version of LO:

missing_content_ex1.docx: Pages 6 through 17 of the PDF file are blank aside from the header and footer.

overlap_content_ex1.docx: Page 5 of the original file has elements overlapping the page header. The PDF version contains text elements that overlap.

missing_pages_ex1.docx: 5 pages long in total. When converted, this produces 3 pages in total. The 3rd and 4th pages are missing and not converted, as in the original document. Number 6 in the image on the 2nd page is cut off from the image.

Thanks for your help

Hi Catalyst Team,

Just trying to give this issue a little nudge as a fix would be very helpful and appreciated.
