Description: When I open a Word document in LibreOffice Writer, the columns of tables appear significantly narrower than they do in Word, causing the content to be compressed or overlapped. How can I ensure that table column widths are preserved correctly when opening in LibreOffice and converting to pdf? Steps to Reproduce: 1. I better hand over the input to you in some way, because the word docx file is created in a way I am not familiar with. (either generated by a program or by user templates) Actual Results: The word document's table column widths is not same as the word file and the table in the middle of the document is unreadable. Expected Results: The word docx/pdf content should reflect the content in the same way as it is available in word file with format and font Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Here is the question regarding this problem. There is a picture showing the issue. https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/word-365-docx-file-with-a-table-is-getting-a-strange-rendering-when-opened-and-converted-to-pdf-using-libreoffice-writer/97430

Hi QA Team, I've removed all sensitive info from the document, but couldn't reproduce the bug, probably due to changes saved in the document. I suggest you to try creating a longer table, maybe stretching over 10 to 20 pages, instead of just three which was an assumption I get to hear from your colleague. This might help us see if the bug shows up under those conditions. Otherwise, see this bug report as closed Best, Omid

It's a bit difficult for testers to reproduce such a complex scenario. I tried in office.com and it only allows me to insert a table with 100 rows, which spans only 4 pages.
