Example Word document with multiline vertical text

Following document imported from Word to Writer displayed significantly differently in comparison with Word:
1. Create new document in Word (I used 2007 Word).
2. Insert new table.
3. Add multiline text to cell breaking lines by pressing Enter:

first line<ENTER>
second line<ENTER>

4. Right click with mouse on table cell -> Text Direction -> select vertical text direction.
5. Save document and open it in Writer.

Observer behavior:
Writer shows text in table cell in single line.

Expected behavior:
Writer shows multiline text in table cell in multiple lines.


When I break lines in Word with <Shift-Enter> it correctly displayed as multiline in Writer.
Attaching:
  1) Word document with examples of multiline texts separated with <Enter> and <Shift-Enter>,
  2) same document exported to PDF in Word.

This bug report describes problem with incorrect importing of Word document into LibreOffice.
Previously I reported issue similar to your bug report (see https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38064) and received explanation from user vitriol that you should use <Shift+Enter> to separate lines in vertically aligned paragraph (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38064#c1).
Comment 5 sasha.libreoffice 2011-06-13 23:14:37 UTC
With Shift-Enter it works. Thanks for explanation. I will use it.
But from user point of view it looks strange that Enter not works.

Even if it is described in a different way, I assume this is a duplicate of https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34436 (as mentioned above)

Vertical text comparison on Word 2010 and LibreOffice 4.1.1.2 in doc and docx formats

Problem persists with 4.1.1.2
Comment 12 Matthew Francis 2015-04-10 08:02:58 UTC
In LO 3.3.0 the text was displayed as multiple lines - but also not rotated.
By LO 3.4.0 it looks much the same as at present (5.0 master - same as in the attached image).

The result wasn't really right before or after, but on balance let's call the lost line breaks a regression.
