Does Importing Word > Replace existing pages with imported pages of the same title remove comments?

When I import a Word Document and choose the option Replace existing pages with imported pages of the same title, will that leave any comments attached to the existing page intact and re-attach them to the imported page?

Hi @Londer Jan

A little test showed me, that the comments remain there, the page is only replaced.
I think the inline comments will disappear.

Indeed. The page content is replaced with whatever you are importing (comparable like an edit) and the version history of that page will give you access to the previous version. The comments attached to the page remain intact.

Hi @Londer Jan @Dominic Lagger Thanks for this thread, are Jira issues retained as well when a page is replaced?
