Context-free description: Consider the attached DOC file. It contains a shape with 4 paragraphs of text, but only 3 properly fit into the height of the box; the fourth paragraph overflows, and is not displayed beyond the bottom of the shape. When we open the file in LO Writer, the overflowing 4th paragraph _does_ display below the edges of the shape. If we first save the file, from MS-Word, as a DOCX, and open it in LO Writer - the overflowing paragraph does not show below the shape's bottom edge. ---- Now for some background: This is the first of several bugs separating out the issuess we see in the infamous DOC from in bug 50301. The attached document is attachment 62050 [details] with the following changes: * Everything on the second column removed * Only the top, page-wide shape kept; everything below and above it removed * Shape border and background changed * Replaced the shape text area with 4 paragraphs of English LTR text * Removed most styles and DF * Set the Normal style to use the Liberation Sans font family
