.doc file

This if file that Word 2003 does not open correctly. Document is normally sent in .PDF format but some clients only have Word or require word becuse they are visually handicapped and there software for reading documents does not handle .pdf or .odt correctly

Let me know if any testing or additional information you would like.

reproduced in 3.3.4 and 3.5.3 on Fedora 64 bit and in  3.5.2 on Windows 7 32 bit
Original file contains much frames. Saved doc Word opens without question. But document differs from original odt.
IMHO problem might be because Writer increased size of objects during saving to doc
Possibly related: bug 40120, bug 40187, bug 42810, bug 43170

changing version to 3.3.4 as most early reproducible
