Example file from Word 2013

Attached example file contains a paragraph with 48 pt (1.69 cm) before and 0 pt after spacing, which is set by direct formatting.
This is opened correctly in Writer, but saving sets these values to both "Auto" (0.49 cm), changing the layout.
Word reports that the original DF of 48 pt is saved as "Auto", while the 0 pt setting is not saved at all, so the Style-level "Auto" value is applied.

1, Open attached file
2, Save as RTF, reload in either Writer or Word
3. The paragraph "just some formatted text" has changed its "large" 1.69 cm spacing before to a "medium" 0.49 cm before and after spacing ("Auto" when opened in Word).

Comment 4 Miklos Vajna 2023-10-16 07:24:32 UTC 
The timeline I see:

- this "started to work" with 291c9122b23ce7aa619e828b895b08dcd21bf025 (tdf#104081 RTF import: handle \htmautsp, 2017-02-21)
- then this had to be partially reverted in 9dd82d0d68065ab95e20a1a489f4130299a8669e (tdf#107480 RTF import: fix HTML automatic spacing in styles, 2017-08-15)

So this never really worked, I think. Adjusting keywords accordingly.
