the office test document

After opening a testdocument with tables in LO 4.1.3 Writer, the width of the colums is changed compared to the original document.

Steps to reproduce:
(1) Open testdocument.docx an MS Office 2007 or 2010 and go to page 3. It has two tables. The column width is the same in both tables. 
(2) Open the test document in LibreOffice 4.1.3, go to page 3 and check the tables. The upper table is broader because it has wider columns. 

See also the vertical green lines in Table_original.jpg and the vertical red lines in Table_wider_columns.jpg.

test document compared in MSO and LO with and without Preferred width

Repro LO 6.4+ for original DOCX but not if resaved in MSO without Preferred width in Table preferences.

After turning off auto resize in Word and the original in Writer

These tables have the "Automatically resize to fit contents" property enabled in Word, which does not exist in Writer.
Turning it off for both tables in Word creates the same look as the original opens in Writer.
This is mostly the same as bug 109524 although on the more stress-test-y side of the problem.
I only mark it as See Also.

Dear bugzilla,

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
