Created attachment 135337 [details] Missing nested table The attachment is sanitized and distilled minimal reproducer of a real user's problem with a document created by a third-party report-generating software. The file opens in Word with a 1-column 2-row outer table that has a nested table in second row. That nested table has a single cell with two lines of text in it, with line break between lines: [Table1:A2] [Table2:A1] When open in Writer, there's no nested table, and outer table's second row's cell contains text [Table1:A2] with line break after it. The document is ill-formed OOXML, that contains <w:tbl> element as direct child of <w:p>, which is illegal, but accepted by Word. Furthermore, Word makes a funny trick here, moving the content of the outer <w:p> into the first cell of inner table. The goal is to try to be bug-to-bug compatible with Word here.
