(In reply to comment #1) > Created attachment 53211 [details] > odt-file I can confirm the bug too. It's really strange because after the recovery of the documment you can paste the text and LibreOffice doesen't crash. LibreOffice 3.4.3 platform: Windows 7 Home Premium x64
Confirmed w/LO 3.4.4 (linux - deb build): LibreOffice 3.4.4 OOO340m1 (Build:402) Works w/LO 3.3.4 (linux - deb build): LibreOffice 3.3.4 OOO330m19 (Build:401) tag libreoffice-3.3.4. So this appears to be a another regression between 3.3.4 and 3.4.x.
indeed it crashes in 3.4.4 It does not in a 3.5 masterbuild. What is so special about this section that is causes the crash? Some testing shows that it crashes if I copy paste from the first paragraph, but not if I do it with text from the second. Note there is something strange too with the paragraph markers in the blue text. Selecting and setting to default (Toosl > Default) does not make any difference for me.
Got an strace, but it's over 9MB and so can't be attached. Given that the bug is easily reproduced I reckon that a dev can do the same directly.
Just ran across yet another case of a .docx crashing LO and OOo-dev: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.openoffice.general/57343 [Problem with the Open Office Text Processing] The file can be downloaded by right clicking Dr. Kostopoulos' attachement. It will download as a .bin file - just rename it to a .docx file. <http://cache.gmane.org//gmane/comp/openoffice/general/57343-001.bin> 1. OOo 3.2.1 (go-oo Ubuntu distribution build linux) OpenOffice.org 3.2.1 OOO320m19 (Build:9505) ooo-build 3.2.1.4, Ubuntu package 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1. The file opens properly and displays 7 full pages of text including References and Biography etc., with no problem. 2. OOo-Dev (standard build linux) OOo-dev 3.4.0 DEV300m106 (Build:9582) Crashes OOo immediately & leaves a lock file in place. 3. LibreOffice 3.3.4 (standard build linux) LibreOffice 3.3.4 OOO330m19 (Build:401) tag libreoffice-3.3.4. Crashes LO immediately & leaves a lock file in place. 4. LibreOffice 3.4.4 (standard build linux) LibreOffice 3.4.4 OOO340m1 (Build:402) Crashes LO immediately & leaves a lock file in place.
My apologies. The former comments regarding the .docx crashes are most likely not related to this bug (where copy & past is the issue).
Loking for some other bug, I tested this with LO 3.5.0 on Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04 (alpha). It doesn't crash. Please check.

Thanks, that is confirming what I found in my previous comment: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42639#c4 I suggest marking as FIXED in 3.5.x
