RTL problem in .docx files - same occurs for .pptx files

When I open a MS Office (.pptx or .docx) file that has RTL text in it using Libre Office, it changes the text direction to LTR. I have to mention that there is no problem with .ppt and .doc files. 
I checked the styles and formatting tab of the document in Libre Office and saw that in all styles the text direction is set to LTR instead of RTL.
please see the attachment.
I think it's a problem that occurs in all platforms and versions. Maybe there is a same problem for .xlsx!

Saeed
