Created attachment 192766 [details] Document with line styles and their appearance in Word and LOWriter Line styles other than plain, dotted and (short) dashed are not imported and look like plain lines. That includes lines with longer dashes or dash-dot styles. Attached a sample document and its rendering.
Hello Alvaro, Thank you for reporting the bug. Unfortunately without clear steps to reproduce it, we cannot track down the origin of the problem. Please provide a clearer set of step-by-step instructions on how to reproduce the problem. I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' once the steps are provided
Sorry, I thought the attached file was enough. To reproduce it: 1. Draw several lines in MS Word (straight, curved, does not matter). 2. Select each one and go to Shape Outline -> Dashes. Assign different styles from the drop down. 3. Save and open in LO Writer. Some styles (plain, dotted, simple dashes [the first few in the drop down]) are imported and shown. Some others (longer dashes, dash dot, ...) appear as plain lines.

I realized had previously used an old version of Word. Now I did the same with the current MS Word and the lines seem well imported in LO. Maybe older versions stored line styles in a different way that is not fully understood by LO. But given that current versions are supported, the severity of this issue is reduced.
confirm with Version: 24.8.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: fd948fd27356e703fffc7e46df0f0e3a22f57967 CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 6.5; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: cs-CZ (cs_CZ.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded Jumbo and Version: 4.1.0.0.alpha1+ Build ID: a2c9d4f8bbde97f175bae4df771273a61251f40 Which is old version of Word?
