When a .docx document that contains a big table is opened in LibreOffice Writer, the table and the text in it are shown somewhat "condensed" where the text from the next cells intersects with the text from the previous cells, making it impossible to read and work with the document.

1. Open the attached file "example.docx"
2. Observe the results
3.

Actual Results:
It's not possible to read and work with the content of the document.

Thank you, I confirm that LibreOffice 24.2.0.0.alpha0+ opens and edits this document correctly.
Next question: will these changes from the 24.2.0.0.alpha0+ be merged into a stable version of 7.6.x ? Or will they "live" only within 24.2.0.0.alpha until it becomes at least "beta" ?

Floating tables...
Seems to be fixed (3 pages, no endless loop... which were problematic in some bibisect versions) since:
