2nd grade homework assignment with two columns on a single page

Writer neither outputs an error nor displays any text when the attached file is opened.  MS Word 2007 opens the file just file.

Using LibreOffice 3.5.0rc2 results in a Single column displayed the width of a single character.  So slightly better than release 3.4.5.

Reproduced with

LOdev 3.5.0rc2
Ubuntu 10.04.3 x86
Linux 2.6.32-37-generic Russian UI

And it looks much better in OO.o3.2

for me not reproducible with LO 4.0.2.2 (Win7 Home, 64bit)

looks ok, there are only a few smaller layout issues: the border is thinner than in MSO 2007 and there are smaller text distances (so that the text is compressed)

On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources (future 4.2.0) updated yesterday, it seems ok. I mean I can see the 2 columns and with no specific problems.

However in 4.1.3, the 2 columns are superposed, quite weird since in 4.0.2, there wasn't this problem.

Compared with Word 2010 and it looks so good I'm just going to close this. Version: 4.4.0.0.alpha1+
