Publisher Crashes When Deleting Footnote or Sidenote Reference From Master Page

[Hangman]

Steps to Recreate

1. Create a new, one-page Publisher Document using the default master, Master A
2. Add a text frame to Master A and add some text to the text frame
3. Insert either a Footnote or Sidenote on Master A
4. Page 1 updates to reflect both the added text and Footnote/Sidenote Main Text and Note Body reference number
5. Insert a new page after Page 1 based on Master A
   • Publisher 2.0.4 shows both the Main Text and Note Body Reference number on Page 2
   • Publisher 2.3.0.2096 and 2.2.1 shows the Main Text Reference number on Page 2 but not the Note Body reference number
6. Go to Master A and delete the Footnote/Sidenote in the Main Text by clicking after the reference and hitting the backspace key
   • Publisher 2.0.4 = No Crash
   • Publisher 2.3.0.2096 and 2.2.1 = Instant Crash
