Created attachment 57983 [details] Zip file Problem description: I have attached a .zip file, which includes a rdown_2.doc, and a rdown_2.docx which was created by saving the .doc file as .docx with LibreOffice 3.4.5. When the file is opened again with LibreOffice and MS Office Web Apps, the tab formatting is broken. Steps to reproduce: 1. Open .doc file in LibreOffice 2. Save .doc file as .docx 3. Open .docx file Current behavior: The length of tabs after a word that ends with a colon is changed. In the first page, this causes some text to appear at the right side of the page. In the second page, there are tabs missing after "B.I.I." and "NVQ:", causing these two lines to be shorter than they should. When the file is opened with MS Office Web Apps, the tabs in the first page are correct, but the some text appears centered, and the missing tabs after "B.I.I." nad "NVQ:" are missing. Expected behavior: Same tab formatting as in the .doc file Platform (if different from the browser): Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:10.0.2) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/10.0.2 Iceweasel/10.0.2
There's extra tabulation added to paragraphs at 0,5in. To OP: Using tabulation only once and setting explicit tabulation position would save you from such incidents.
Thanks for the advice, but table formatting shouldn't be broken when saving to docx.

Tested again in LibreOffice 4.3 on Linux. The bug is still present for the tabs in the first page though the tabs after "B.I.I" and "NVQ:" are no longer missing.
