Multi-column 1-page .doc file which doesn't display correctly in LibreOffice

LibreOffice 3.6.5.2 generally works quite well for me.

However, it doesn't correctly display a certain .doc file (BWDoc1.doc) I have created.

This specific .doc file was created using Foxit PhantomPDF's OCR on 1 page I scanned from an old 
(1905, so in the public domain) reference/study Bible we have.
The top of the page has 4 columns -- with the 2 outermost columns of the same size and the 2
innermost columns of the same size, but the outermost/innermost columns of differing sizes.
(Column1Width = Column4Width and Column2Width = Column3Width, but Column1Width != Column2Width).
and the bottom of the page has 3 equal-width columns.

I realize that this is quite a complex document, but

    MS Office Word Viewer 11.8169.8172 SP3 opens and displays this file correctly.
	
and

    Lotus Symphony 3.01 opens it and displays it fairly well, but not perfectly.

I am running 64-bit Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium (SP1).

Thank you.

I can confirm this 'behavior'/rendering issues.

I also see that this .doc is 'rtf-based' (I don't know what the exact words are, but I see rtf code in it). So I'm not sure this is just a renamed extension (from .rtf to .doc) or it's just saved that way.

@Miklos: do you mind have a look at this rtf(/doc)?

Thanks in advance,
Joren

I see essentially the same problem with the current LibreOffice Fresh, v7.3.2.2. (x64), using Windows 10 Home. See new screenshot.
