Description A Sh 2012-05-23 23:44:45 UTC
Problem description: 
The layout of .doc file I have isn't shown correctly (may be because of having too many tables and arts)

Attached file description:
After extracting zip file you will see these files:
form5.doc (the main file)
Needed Fonts.zip (Fonts used in the main document)
form5-Microsoft Word layout.pdf (What you see in Microsoft Word)
form5-Libreoffice layout.pdf (What you see in Libreoffice Writer)

Steps to reproduce:
1. open the file "form5.doc"

Current behavior:
The layout as you see isn't correct (like the file "form5-Microsoft word layout.pdf" which is created with Microsoft Word)

This is a Writer issue, therefore changed the Component field accordingly.

There are alot of various bugs within this single file that need to be fixed in order for this to be completely resolved, but the biggest issue seems to be the wrong positioning of images/ole, textboxes/frames and shapes within the page's two columns, which bug 85994 is intending to fix.

Not really! I can't tell what the exact bug is. However, the issue Yousuf mentioned seems to be a good start.

Dear A Sh,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword


Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team
