Description slacka 2013-07-26 07:23:49 UTC 
MS .doc file fails to import correctly

This bug was tested Apache OpenOffice v4.0 running in windows 7 and XP. It appears that AOO loses formatting when importing MS Word 2003 .doc files. I have attached an example.

Steps to reproduce the bug:
1. Open attached Demo-Hayden-Management.doc document in writer 
2. Open attached Demo-Hayden-Management.doc document in Word2003/Office 365
3. Compare the documents. 

Note item #2 in the image comparison. The picture is placed on the wrong side of the page.

That never 
@slacka 
Thank you for your reports
There is no need to attach the same sample document in several bug reports, it is more effective and clear if you cite a document in additional bugs as you can see here:

Comment 5 Rainer Bielefeld 2013-07-28 09:14:18 UTC 
Additional info:
a) That never worked correctly, I already see the picture left aligned in 
   OOo 1.1.5 (all: WIN7)
b) Competitors: 
   Same problem in LibO
   Correctly right aligned in SoftMaker TexMaker and Calligra
