Description: Ubuntu 11.04
Release: 11.04

2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-writer

3) What is expected to happen in LibreOffice Writer via the Terminal:

cd ~/Desktop && wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/185683/+attachment/195539/+files/SPAserver230108.docx && lowriter -nologo SPAserver230108.docx

is that it looks as it does in Word 2003 ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/185683/+attachment/2145493/+files/Screenshot.png ).

4) What happens instead is the contents on the first page is completely gone. The document was made in Office 2007.

[This is an automated message.]
This bug was filed before the changes to Bugzilla on 2011-10-16. Thus it
started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is
changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back
to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases.
Details on how to test the 3.5.0 beta1 can be found at:

@Christopher M. Penalver:
View in MS WORD VIEWER and LibO 3.6 Master are so different that it's not easy to find out that it's the same document ;-)

Concering what of the lots of problems is this Report?
Comment 4 Christopher M. Penalver 2012-05-04 03:15:18 UTC
Rainer Bielefeld, looks like we have dramatic improvement as the text boxes are visible, in the correct positions, and have the correct content.
