Description: When updating an index created in Microsoft Office, LibreOffice completely mangles the index making it unsable. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open attached docx file which has basic index (Basic Word Index - Word.docx) with LibreOffice; 2. Right click on the index (note that the index looks fine when it's first opened) 3. Left click "Update index" Actual Results: Index is completely mangled. Page margins are not respected, page numbers no longer present for index, ellipses (...) way too long). Basically 100% unusable. Expected Results: Index should maintain its data and its structure after update. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: I have no tested to see if this is a regression or not. I will try to do so later this evening. Confirmed that it exists in Linux and Windows, and that it happens in latest master build from yesterday.

Created attachment 174039 [details] How it looks after updating This is an alphabetical index made in Word with 3 columns. After opening it looks quite okay, only an extra empty paragraph was added since the document started with a continuous section break. After update it falls apart spectacularly, getting the multicolumn alphabetical index formatting. After inserting a new alphabetical index (the existing one is protected from manual changes so can't really investigate what's going on) it looks like: - there is an extra tabulator at the end of each paragraphs at 16.51 cm - the entries are incorrectly separated such as "Another One:Nothing Interesting" is one paragraph instead of being split to two at the : - related to the previous one, the last index entries are lost that belong to Test 3: the See nothing interesting part is just gone.
