An extremely broken .docx import

Problem description: 
When trying to open the attached document LibreOffice get the document very wrong. I really can't add any more except open the document in LO and in Word and you'll see what I mean.  The imported document is all but useless. Unfortunately I don't know which version of Word it was prepared on. I have also tried 4.2 and the same thing happens so it's not a regression.
Operating System: Linux (Other)
Version: 4.3.1.2 release

Hello User[confirm],

Thank you for submitting the bug. I can confirm that the bug is available in 4.3.2 and master. The shape not appearing seems to be similar to bug 78484.

LibO 4.3 VS Word 2007

For some strange reason, LibO 4.3 pdf export shrunk the page contents on the page in comparison to 4.2.6 and master.

LibO 4.2.6 vs 4.4 Master

As can be seen here, word art in 4.3 seems to have a regression in it.

DOCX compared in MSO

This DOCX has a problem with itself. Attached is screenshot comparison in MSO of original DOCX and another one resaved in MSO. Not the same.

DOCX resaved in MSO

LO opens newly saved DOCX similar to MSO. 

There were similar bugs. I usually close them as NotOurBug.
Comment 14 Timur 2020-09-14 11:46:10 UTC
Ideally, LO should emulate MSO to open also older DOCX as MSO. 
But "fixing" is not worth it.
