This issue has been fixed in LibreOffice 4.2.4, though i cant reproduce it in 4.1.6. Version 4.1 is past its EOL (end-of-line), so if its found in this version, i presume it wont be fixed. So i encourage you to upgrade to 4.2.4 or 4.3.0 when it release in a month.

Hi Apul,

I should clarify my previous message. This isnt a libreoffice 4.1 read error for docx files, this is likely a libreoffice 4.2 save error for docx files. So the user who created the docx file that you are trying to open, should upgrade to 4.2.4 or higher, so that you will be able to open docx files without the read error.
