Reproducible with LO 4.4.1.2, Win 8.1

Several buggy issues are reproducible:
- Page 1: Header and footer text backgrounds are white
- Page 1: Main text frame is cornered instead of rounded
- Page 2: The left symbol in the title is missing
- Page 2: Text objects with a frame have a white background
- Page 2: Directory frame is cornered instead of rounded
- Page 2: Text in the three frames at the bottom is lifted up a little bit
- Page 2: The flipping of pages corners in the three frames at the bottom are missing
- Page 3: An additional image is added
Comment 3 Timur 2016-01-14 11:09:31 UTC
Problems with rendering exist, BUT:
- it's highly unlikely that any bugs of type "multiple problems/bad rendering", will be fixed
- each issue (section break, paragraph break, text box, picture...) should be reported separately, after a search for already reported bugs
- if bugs don't exist, they should be reported separately, even if they happen with the same file

So, this shouldn't have been confirmed at all. Those who confirm should also check each problem in the newer versions up to the current master. I'll revert to Unconfirmed.

I kindly ask you to reduce the file to minimum test case for each specific problem (like saving a single page that shows a problem) - if needed multiple times, of course after a search.

WFM.

Confirmed. Could be expressed as: all rounded frames in document have sharp corners in LibO.

> - Page 2: The left symbol in the title is missing

WFM.

> - Page 2: Text objects with a frame have a white background

WFM.

> - Page 2: Text in the three frames at the bottom is lifted up a little bit

Confirmed. NOTE: the text is laid out in a silly manner: by entering empty paragraphs!!

Confirmed.

Confirmed image of random dude in the header.

Example document saved with MSO 2010

Example document seems to be Office 2017, and it opens better in LO when first saved with MSO 2010.

PDF of example rendered with LO

PDF of example rendered with LO shows that there are differences, some of them written here, plus proprietary font substitutes.

PDF of example saved in MSO 2010 rendered with LO

This PDF is quite fine. Mayor difference is the dude coming out of header, but that shouldn't have been there at all. Looks like hidden content without purpose.
Comment 8 Timur 2016-09-20 08:08:14 UTC
As a conclusion:
- example document seems to be Office 2007, and rendering problems still exist with that, but it opens better in LO when first saved with MSO 2010
- there has been an improvement from LO 4.4 to the current LO 5.2
- I wouldn't expect this specific Office 2007 format support be improved
- document rendering with the current LO is fine, except the dude coming out of header, but that hidden content shouldn't have been there at all
- I'll close as WFM and if there are some remaining specific issues they should be reported separately, after a search for already reported bugs, with a minimum test case for each specific problem
