doc

The document was created in Microsoft Office Word, when openning in Libreoffice, text effects (shadows) are not applied. 

The font Monotype Corsiva is used.

Yes, the document is formatted very ugly, but it was not I who made it.

Confirmed.

Not sure, what I should set as the earliest version, as 3.3 and 3.6 do not even show the shapes.

This shape is actually a canvas, which is imported as a grouped shape. 
But inside it really is just a character level mirroring effect in several textboxes. See bug #123941 about that.

But we should keep this one open as a reminder to bring that feature to grouped shapes which would be an extra mile even after the plain text implements mirroring effect.
