Problem file

Problem description: open the attached file and pages 4 and 5 are mangled (tables seem to be the cause?)

LO 4.1 (Fersiwn: 4.1.1.2 Adeiladedd: 7e4286b58adc75a14f6d83f53a03b6c11fa2903)

Steps to reproduce:
1. open the attached .DOC
2. look at page 4

Current behavior: page 4 contains the contain of pages 4 and 5 on top of each other

Expected behavior: displays page 5 on a separate page to page 4
Operating System: Windows 7
Version: unspecified
Comment 1 Luuk 2013-09-21 17:30:23 UTC
When opening attachment in MSWord2013 page 4 looks ok,

Repro 6.2+. Not really correct document. Also wrong in MSO if saved as DOCX.

Problem file compared MSO LO

This is really a problematic file. 
If resaved in MSO, it opens differently there. 
While problems in LO are obvious, it's not realistic that LO emulates different behavior of MSO. 
It's best to close this bug. 
This may be NotOurBug or even WontFix, whatever, but we should not waste our limited volunteer resources on this file. 
For new files created in MSO, you are welcome to search first and open a bug.
