Problem

tests/Issue_Files/docx/nthu_article.docx renders to 19 pages in .NET MiniPdf while Microsoft 365 Word produces 18. The extra page appears at the "範例B" spine mock-up (Word page 9): the paragraph (如題目14級,題目以外12級) and every paragraph after it move down one page, so pages 10 to 18 are compared against the wrong reference pages (visual scores 0.62, 0.70, 0.33, 0.75 and a missing page 19).

Page 9 of that document contains a wps:wsp text box (文字方塊 2, 49.8pt x 135pt, vertical text "李商隱詩典故研究") anchored with:

<wp:positionH relativeFrom="column"><wp:posOffset>2895600</wp:posOffset></wp:positionH>  <!-- 228pt -->
<wp:positionV relativeFrom="page"><wp:posOffset>3421380</wp:posOffset></wp:positionV>    <!-- 269.4pt -->
<wp:extent cx="632460" cy="1714500"/>
<wp:wrapTopAndBottom/>

In the Word reference PDF the host paragraph sits at y = 255.6pt, the box occupies 269.4pt to 404.4pt, and the following (empty) paragraphs continue below the box on the same page.

Root cause

DocxReader.ReadCore handles anchored text boxes in two ways. wrapNone boxes become DocxFloatingTextBox overlays rendered at their absolute position. Every other wrap mode, including wrapTopAndBottom, is emitted as ordinary flow paragraphs: the first box paragraph receives SpacingBefore += anchorOffsetPt (ForceSpacingBefore = true) and, through textBoxSpacing, the host paragraph receives the same anchorOffsetPt again.

anchorOffsetPt is the wp:positionV/wp:posOffset value regardless of relativeFrom. For a page-relative anchor it is a page coordinate (269.4pt here), not a gap, so the reader inserted roughly 540pt of spacing (269.4pt before the box text and 269.4pt again before the host paragraph). The box text was also drawn at the left margin as horizontal flow text instead of inside the box.

Falsification check before editing: the new unit test (below) run against main shows the box paragraph emitted as a flow paragraph with SpacingBefore = 105 and ForceSpacingBefore = true, the host paragraph with SpacingBefore = 105, and the box text rendered at y = 588pt instead of inside the 647pt to 687pt band.

Expected semantics

  • OOXML wp:wrapTopAndBottom: text is laid out above and below the object, never beside it; the anchor paragraph itself is not displaced by the object.
  • LibreOffice sw/source/writerfilter/dmapper/GraphicImport.cxx: LN_EG_WrapType_wrapTopAndBottom sets m_nWrap = text::WrapTextMode_NONE (lines 1696 to 1700).
  • LibreOffice sw/source/writerfilter/dmapper/GraphicHelpers.cxx (PositionHandler, lines 62 to 72): wp:positionV relativeFrom="page" maps to text::RelOrientation::PAGE_FRAME and "margin" to PAGE_PRINT_AREA, both absolute page positions rather than offsets from the anchor paragraph.
  • offapi/com/sun/star/text/WrapTextMode.idl: NONE means "text does not flow around the object".
  • sw/source/core/text/txtfly.cxx (SwTextFly, line 1452): for WrapTextMode_NONE both CalcRightMargin and CalcLeftMargin are applied, so no text portion is placed beside the object and the text continues below it.

Change

  • DocxReader: a wrapTopAndBottom text box whose vertical anchor is not relativeFrom="paragraph" or "line" (that is page, margin, topMargin, bottomMargin, insideMargin or outsideMargin, all page-based references) now takes the existing floating-box path (isWrapNone || isAbsoluteWrapTopBottom). No flow paragraphs are emitted for it and textBoxSpacing is not inflated. Paragraph- and line-relative wrapTopAndBottom boxes keep the previous flow-paragraph behaviour, so the change is limited to anchors whose offset is an absolute coordinate.
  • DocxFloatingTextBox gains IsWrapTopBottom (default false).
  • RenderState gains WrapObstacles, a list of (page, topY, bottomY) bands, and AvoidWrapObstacles(ascent, descent), which moves CurrentY (the next baseline in this renderer) so that the line top lands on the band bottom whenever the line box would intersect a band on the current page.
  • RenderFloatingTextBoxes registers the band of every IsWrapTopBottom box and applies the check once with the host paragraph's metrics. RenderParagraph re-applies it with the actual paragraph's ascent and line height after spacing-before and the grow/shrink compensations (shifting CurrentParagraphTopY by the same amount so paragraph-relative anchors stay attached), the empty-paragraph path applies it, and every iteration of the wrapped-line loop applies it, so later lines and later paragraphs that reach the band are pushed below it as well.
  • RenderFloatingTextBoxes places boxes on the page the host paragraph started on (RenderState.LastParagraphPage, recorded whenever LastParagraphStartY is set), so a host paragraph with a page break after it no longer paints its boxes on the following page. Floating-box text is emitted with preferredFontName: paraRunFont, as the flow-paragraph path already did.
  • An empty host paragraph whose floating boxes include a wrapTopAndBottom box keeps its normal line height; the overlay-only shortcut (isFloatingAnchorOnlyParagraph) now applies to wrapNone boxes and connector lines only.
  • XML doc comments added to ReadCore and RenderParagraphBorders, which fall inside the diff hunks; no behaviour change there.

Tests and validation

  • New DocxDrawingTests.Read_AbsoluteWrapTopAndBottomTextBox_IsFloatingBox (theory: page anchor at 105pt, margin anchor at 33pt below the 72pt top margin): the box is exposed as a floating box on the host paragraph (IsWrapTopBottom, VRelativeFrom, YPt), no flow paragraph contains the box text, and the host paragraph keeps SpacingBefore == 0.
  • New DocxDrawingTests.Convert_AbsoluteWrapTopAndBottomTextBox_ResumesFlowBelowBox (same two anchors): single page; host baseline above the box top, box text inside the 105pt to 145pt band, following paragraph below the box bottom.
  • Both tests fail on main (SpacingBefore = 105 flow paragraphs; box text at y = 588pt) and pass with this change.
  • dotnet test tests/MiniPdf.Tests --configuration Release: 198 passed, 0 failed.
  • git diff --check: clean.

Baseline and final runs were both executed on main at 54f0648 after regenerating the Microsoft 365 docx references with the Office cloud-font cache already populated. The references produced on 2026-09-10 were exported while Word was still downloading cloud fonts (KaiTi, DengXian), which changed fonts and page counts for six unrelated fixtures; the regenerated set is stable across runs. This is why the baseline average above differs from earlier reports.

Compatibility and scope

Internal DocxReader and DocxToPdfConverter changes only; DocxFloatingTextBox is an internal record and the new parameter has a default value. No public API change. The wrap-band logic only engages for DOCX documents containing a wrapTopAndBottom text box whose wp:positionV is not paragraph- or line-relative; among the repository's docx fixtures only nthu_article has that structure. The host-page anchoring and run-font emission also apply to existing wrapNone floating boxes, which is where the small text-similarity deltas above come from. No new third-party material, fixtures or fonts. No documentation change needed.

Known limitations kept out of scope: paragraph- and line-relative wrapTopAndBottom text boxes still use the flow-paragraph approximation; wrap bands are checked at paragraph starts, in the main wrapped-line loop and for empty paragraphs, but not inside table cells or the hard-break and CJK-break sub-paths of RenderParagraph; topMargin, bottomMargin, insideMargin and outsideMargin anchors reuse the renderer's existing margin-relative origin; vert="eaVert" text inside boxes is still rendered horizontally.

Review follow-up (commit bb9aae4)

  • Copilot: collision reservation based on host metrics only. Replaced by WrapObstacles bands re-checked by every following paragraph start, wrapped line and empty paragraph with their own metrics.
  • Copilot: floating boxes painted on the page after a host paragraph with a page break. Boxes are now placed on RenderState.LastParagraphPage.
  • Copilot: floating-box text dropped the run font. preferredFontName: paraRunFont is now passed.
  • Copilot: empty host paragraph lost its line height. isFloatingAnchorOnlyParagraph excludes paragraphs with a wrapTopAndBottom box.
  • Copilot and CodeRabbit: margin-relative coverage and the remaining ST_RelFromV values. Tests are theories over page and margin; the reader treats every non-paragraph, non-line value as absolute.
  • CodeRabbit nitpick: track bands through subsequent flow. Covered by the WrapObstacles mechanism above.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Fixed positioning for page- and margin-anchored text boxes using top-and-bottom wrapping.
    • Corrected document flow so subsequent content resumes below floating text boxes without overlap or unintended side-by-side placement.
    • Improved handling of empty paragraphs containing wrapped text boxes.
    • Fixed overlapping wrapped text boxes so content avoids all relevant obstacles.
    • Improved continuation-line handling across mixed formatting, columns, and page breaks.
    • Improved rendering consistency for wrapped text boxes across converted documents.

DocxReader emitted every non-wrapNone text box as flow paragraphs and
added the anchor's positionV posOffset as spacing-before, once to the
box text and once more to the host paragraph. For an anchor with
relativeFrom="page" or "margin" that offset is a page coordinate, so a
269pt anchor in nthu_article.docx inserted about 540pt of spacing and
pushed the rest of the document one page down (19 pages instead of 18).

Route those boxes through the wrapNone floating-box path with a new
IsWrapTopBottom flag, and let RenderFloatingTextBoxes resume the flow
below the box when the next line would collide with it, matching
LibreOffice's WrapTextMode_NONE handling (GraphicImport.cxx,
GraphicHelpers.cxx, txtfly.cxx). Paragraph-relative wrapTopAndBottom
boxes keep the previous behaviour.

nthu_article: overall 0.7943 -> 0.9418, visual 0.8288 -> 0.9435,
pages 19/18 -> 18/18; the other 26 issue/docx cases are unchanged.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to d6cc1

This round's changes extend obstacle avoidance to all line-continuation paths (hard breaks, ordinary word wrapping, and CJK wrapping) and make the rescan loop repeat until line placement stabilizes, closing the previously identified gaps where flowing text could still overlap a floating text box. Verification against the current code confirms these fixes are in place, so no merge-blocking risk remains from this round.

src/MiniPdf/DocxReader.cs:498

  • This routes page/margin wrapTopAndBottom boxes into FloatingTextBoxes, but RenderParagraph still classifies any paragraph with floating text boxes as isFloatingAnchorOnlyParagraph and suppresses its normal line-height advance. An empty host paragraph whose box is anchored well below the top (like this new absolute-position path) will therefore not consume its paragraph mark, pulling the following flow upward. Exclude IsWrapTopBottom boxes from that overlay-only predicate, or otherwise preserve the host paragraph's normal line height.
                    if (isWrapNone || isAbsoluteWrapTopBottom)

src/MiniPdf/DocxReader.cs:542

  • The new boxes are rendered by RenderFloatingTextBoxes, whose text emission currently omits preferredFontName: paraRunFont even though the former flow-paragraph path supplies the run font. A page- or margin-anchored box with an explicit CJK or non-default font can therefore fall back to a different embedded font after this change. Preserve the paragraph/run font when emitting floating-box text (and keep the floating and flow paths consistent).
                            floatingTextBoxes.Add(new DocxFloatingTextBox(anchorXPt, anchorOffsetPt, extentWidthPt, extentHeightPt, floatingParas, textBoxBorder, hRelativeFrom, vRelativeFrom, textBoxFillColor, topInsetPt, leftInsetPt, hAlign, vAlign, IsWrapTopBottom: isWrapTopBottom));

src/MiniPdf/DocxReader.cs:496

  • This new branch supports two distinct absolute vertical references, page and margin, but the added tests construct only relativeFrom="page". The margin path has different coordinate math (PageHeight - MarginTop - YPt) and its flow-resume behavior is unprotected; please add a margin-relative read/conversion case alongside the page case.
                    bool isAbsoluteWrapTopBottom = isWrapTopBottom
                        && (vRelativeFrom == "page" || vRelativeFrom == "margin");

src/MiniPdf/DocxToPdfConverter.cs:2130

  • RenderParagraph handles HasPageBreakAfter by calling ForceNewPage() before the caller invokes RenderFloatingTextBoxes (see the existing end-of-method handling around lines 1985-1987). For a page/margin-anchored box in such a paragraph, page is therefore already the following page, so this new path paints the box there and applies its collision adjustment to the wrong page instead of the page containing the anchor. Preserve the host page before the break (or defer the break until after floating boxes) and use that page for the overlay and flow adjustment.
            if (box.IsWrapTopBottom && targetPage == page)

tests/MiniPdf.Tests/DocxDrawingTests.cs:49

  • This test covers only VRelativeFrom == "page", while the new reader branch also explicitly supports "margin" and the converter uses a different origin for that mode (PageHeight - MarginTop - box.YPt). Add a margin-anchored case with an expected rendered position so that the second supported coordinate path is protected independently.
        Assert.True(box.IsWrapTopBottom);
        Assert.Equal("page", box.VRelativeFrom);
        Assert.InRange(box.YPt, 104.9f, 105.1f);

Agreed, the host-metric estimate alone could not guarantee the following line. The follow-up commit carries the box band into the layout instead of adjusting once:

  • RenderState.WrapObstacles stores (page, topY, bottomY) for every page- or margin-anchored wrapTopAndBottom box; RenderState.AvoidWrapObstacles(ascent, descent) moves CurrentY (the next baseline) so the line top lands on the band bottom whenever the line box [CurrentY - descent, CurrentY + ascent] intersects a band on the current page.
  • RenderFloatingTextBoxes registers the band and applies the check once with the host metrics (so the immediately following empty or ghost paragraphs already start below the box).
  • RenderParagraph re-applies the check with the actual paragraph's own ascent and line height after the spacing-before and grow/shrink compensations and before paragraphStartY is captured, so the shrink case you describe can no longer end inside the band; CurrentParagraphTopY is shifted by the same amount so paragraph-relative anchors stay attached.
  • The empty-paragraph path and every iteration of the wrapped-line loop apply the same check, so later lines of a multi-line paragraph and later paragraphs that reach the band are also pushed below it.

Bands are keyed by page, so a host paragraph whose flow already moved to the next page is unaffected. Covered by Convert_AbsoluteWrapTopAndBottomTextBox_ResumesFlowBelowBox (page and margin anchors).

2130-2146: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Track wrapTopAndBottom boxes through subsequent flow

RenderFloatingTextBoxes runs once after the host paragraph. Its collision branch adjusts state.CurrentY for only one estimated line. Later lines and paragraphs advance with state.AdvanceY(lineHeight) without rechecking the box band. If the first line remains above the band, a later line can enter it. Track active box bands during subsequent line and paragraph advances until the flow passes each box.

Follow-up to the review of mini-software#167.

- Record every page- or margin-anchored wrapTopAndBottom box as a
  RenderState.WrapObstacles band and re-check the actual first line of
  each following paragraph, each wrapped line and each empty paragraph
  against it, instead of adjusting CurrentY once from the host metrics.
  The shrink compensation of a smaller following paragraph can no longer
  move its baseline back into the band.
- Place floating boxes on the page the host paragraph started on
  (RenderState.LastParagraphPage), so a host with a page break after it
  no longer paints the box on the following page.
- Pass the paragraph run font when emitting floating-box text, as the
  flow-paragraph path already did.
- Let an empty host paragraph of a wrapTopAndBottom box keep its line
  height; only wrapNone boxes and connector lines are overlay-only.
- Treat every ST_RelFromV value other than paragraph and line as a
  page-based anchor (topMargin, bottomMargin, insideMargin, outsideMargin
  in addition to page and margin).
- Cover page and margin anchors in the reader and conversion tests.

Follow-up commit bb9aae4 addresses every review finding:

  • Collision handling (Copilot, CodeRabbit nitpick): the box band is now recorded in RenderState.WrapObstacles and re-checked with the actual metrics at every following paragraph start, every wrapped line of the main text loop and every empty paragraph, so a smaller following paragraph or a later line can no longer end inside the band.
  • Host page (Copilot): floating boxes are placed on RenderState.LastParagraphPage, the page the host paragraph started on, so a host paragraph with a page break after it keeps its boxes on the anchor page.
  • Run font (Copilot): floating-box text is emitted with preferredFontName: paraRunFont, matching the flow-paragraph path.
  • Empty host line height (Copilot): isFloatingAnchorOnlyParagraph no longer applies when a wrapTopAndBottom box is present.
  • ST_RelFromV coverage (CodeRabbit) and margin tests (Copilot): every value other than paragraph and line is treated as an absolute anchor; the reader and conversion tests are theories over page and margin anchors.

Validation: 198 unit tests pass; the complete issue/docx benchmark (27 cases) keeps nthu_article at 18/18 pages with overall 0.9435 (baseline 0.7943), no visual_avg decrease on any case, average 0.9603 (baseline 0.9547). Details and the two small text-similarity deltas caused by the run-font change are in the updated description.

Apply obstacle avoidance to multi-format continuation lines.

RenderMultiFormatRuns advances to this wrapped line and only applies the top-of-page ascent adjustment. It does not call AvoidWrapObstacles. A paragraph with mixed formatting can therefore move its first line below a wrapTopAndBottom box, then render later wrapped lines through that box.

Call AvoidWrapObstacles after every continuation-line advance in this method, including hard-break and CJK-break paths.

Inline comments:
In `@src/MiniPdf/DocxToPdfConverter.cs`:
- Around line 666-671: Update the obstacle handling loop in the layout flow
around WrapObstacles so bands are processed from top to bottom or rescanned
until CurrentY no longer changes. Ensure every CurrentY adjustment is followed
by checks against previously evaluated obstacles, preventing text from ending
inside a lower obstacle band.
- Line 1409: Update the flow-line rendering around
RenderState.AvoidWrapObstacles so page or column fitting occurs immediately
after every obstacle adjustment and before emitting list labels or text,
including repeated simple-format continuation lines. If fitting changes the page
or column, recompute the paragraph anchor state before rendering.

Thanks for the second pass. The three remaining items are acknowledged and intentionally left for a follow-up, to keep this PR limited to the nthu_article root cause:

  • RenderMultiFormatRuns continuation lines (hard-break and CJK-break sub-paths) do not call AvoidWrapObstacles. That path behaves exactly as on main; the description lists it under known limitations. The nthu_article fixture does not exercise it.
  • AvoidWrapObstacles scans bands in registration order, which is document order. A single page with two overlapping bands registered bottom-first is not present in any fixture; a top-to-bottom sort or rescan is a small follow-up.
  • A band ending below the bottom margin can push a continuation line below the margin before the loop's fit check runs on the next iteration. Also a follow-up; no fixture reaches that case.

Validation for this PR stands: 198 unit tests pass, the full issue/docx benchmark shows no visual decrease on any of the 27 cases, and nthu_article goes from 19/18 pages at 0.7943 to 18/18 pages at 0.9435.

Reviewed and pushed follow-up commit d6cc1e6 to close the remaining wrap-obstacle correctness gaps before merge:

  • Apply obstacle avoidance to every mixed-format continuation path, including hard breaks, ordinary wrapping, and CJK wrapping.
  • Rescan obstacle bands until the line position is stable, so registration order cannot leave text inside an overlapping lower band.
  • Move to the next column/page immediately when an obstacle pushes a line below the bottom margin, and recompute the paragraph anchor after that transition.
  • Add regression coverage for all three cases.

Validation:

  • Focused DocxDrawingTests: 8/8 passed.
  • Full MiniPdf.Tests suite: 201/201 passed.
  • Full MiniPdf.sln Release build passed across all target frameworks and projects.
  • Full .NET issue/docx visual benchmark: 27/27 converted and compared, with no missing references. Results are identical to the previous PR head for every case across overall score, visual score, text similarity, and page count. Overall average remains 0.9617; nthu_article remains 18/18 pages with score 0.9435.
  • git diff --check passed.

The implementation now addresses the review findings without changing the existing benchmark output. I will merge once the updated CI checks complete successfully.
