This Word document is completely screwed up by Writer. Created with Word 2002, opens fine on my computer.

Problem seems evident on MS Word as well.

On LibreOffice 3.4  340m1(Build:103) on OpenSuse Linux. I can see that the vertical column on text is corrupted. Only problem is when I open the Word document, the lines beneath the vertical text is corrupted as well. So I am unsure as to whether the problem is confirm-able. See attachment.
Comment 3 Cor Nouws 2011-08-17 05:02:05 UTC
so close as invalid?
Comment 4 noname 2011-08-17 12:44:37 UTC
Tested with [Win2K OpenOffice.org 3.2.1 OOO320m19 (Build:9505)]
Frame on the second page goes of the page, but is readable.

On [Win2K LibreOffice 3.3.4 OOO330m19 (Build:401)].
Frame on the second page is completely blank.

With both versions, text is corrupt. The Frame problem is something else as it loads correct with abiword.
Comment 5 Cor Nouws 2011-08-17 13:45:38 UTC
thnx for additional testing. Then at least the issue represents a regression from OOo 321 to OOo/LibreOffice 3.3.x and a case for improvement.
Comment 6 Cor Nouws 2011-09-07 13:29:50 UTC
could one of the testers pls try to create a meaningful discription for the issue?
E.g. mentioning frames, or hidden, or ..

Thanks :-)

reproduced in LibO 3.6.0 master
I have splitted initial document into 2 another and added screenshots of both in MsOffice.
In first document problem is with frame, it becomes with wrong size and position
In second document is some another problem

Hi,

(In reply to comment #12)
> In second document is some another problem

Thanks for the docs and so.
For another issue, can you please add the file to an already existing same issue or write a new one, if needed? thanks - Cor

hi Sacha,

Well, 
    for example  Table in frame show wrong in this or that way
    or other exmaple:  text in frame anchored at e.g. page is not shown

It can be so much more specific then " MS Word incompatibility " ;-)

thanks a lot!

Can someone explain in simple words what the problem is we are trying to solve here?!?

I downloaded both versions of "7 frames done in MSO" and compared them. They look identical to my eyes on OS X 10.8.4, LO 4.2.

Version: 4.2.0.0.alpha0+
Build ID: 9fed8a5e4a4c45d6a08260e9480ca6b43254b120
TinderBox: MacOSX-X86_64@43, Branch:master, Time: 2013-08-29_07:14:27
