is there a max width on paper size in writer

Writer seems to not want to format correctly when I try to make my paper over 46 inches wide after I have been wideing it a few inches at a time.
highth or length seems to work fine I am at 50 inches with it.

This is a known bug dating back several years.

I see the same issue; when I go over 47.09" in total paper width (user-defined paper to print on), Libre Writer reformats the text into a very narrow column.

I am now using version 4.4.2.2, Build ID: c4c7d32d0d49397cad38d62472b0bc8acff48dd6, on Linux Mint Cinnamon 17. How about you? Please collect that information from Help | About in Libre Writer, and advise.

To hasten its solution, please go to https://bugs.documentfoundation.org to create a login there, then go to the first weblink in my response, and report the bug also affects you, along with which version of Libre Writer you use, and which operating system you have. They want bug reports from folks using the very latest version (4.4) of Libre Writer,if possible.
