--- Comment #13 from Saranya <snandakumar2012@my.fit.edu> ---
Configuration:

Product: Open Office Word Processor=20
Date of Test: 06/22/2012
Version: Open Office Version: 3.4.0
AOO340m1(Build:9590) =E2=80=93 Rev 1327774
Platform: Windows 7 Home Premium =E2=80=93 64 bit

Description:

The original report describes that if a Microsoft word files (docx) which
contains tables, when opened with Open Office, layout of tables and table c=
ell
are different, from the original Microsoft word. Also error is same when the
Open office file is exported as a pdf file. However I created and used a sa=
mple
file =E2=80=9Cdocument1.docx=E2=80=9D to perform the test.

I followed the below steps in replicating the bug,

Step 1: I created and saved a =E2=80=9Cdocument1.docx=E2=80=9D which contai=
ns tables=20

Step 2: The table is similar as the author did (i.e.) 2(rows) x 6(columns) =
with
Tahoma font style

Step 3: After saving the =E2=80=9Cdocument1.docx=E2=80=9D. I open the file =
with Open office and
I could see the table layout was different from the original =E2=80=9Cdocum=
ent1.doxc=E2=80=9D.=20

Step 4: I saved the open office as =E2=80=9Cdocumnet1.odt=E2=80=9D to see t=
he file can provide
any information=E2=80=99s.

Step 5: As per the author. Even I exported both the =E2=80=9Cdocument1.docx=
=E2=80=9D and
=E2=80=9Cdocument1.odt=E2=80=9D to pdf format and saved as =E2=80=9Cdocumen=
t1_docx.pdf=E2=80=9D and
=E2=80=9Cdocument1_odt.pdf=E2=80=9D respectively.

Step 6: When I compared both the pdf files =E2=80=9Cdocument1_docx.pdf=E2=
=80=9D and
=E2=80=9Cdocument1_odt.pdf=E2=80=9D I could see the same error as I said in=
 step 3(i.e.) layout
were different.=20

Apart from original authors comments on table issue when I opened
=E2=80=9Cdocument1.docx=E2=80=9D with Open office, I also found another iss=
ue (i.e.) table
borders are changing. Even though I created 2*6 table as author did which h=
ad
=E2=80=9Cbottom boarder=E2=80=9D, I also created three more tables each wit=
h different
dimension and all are made as =E2=80=9Call boarders=E2=80=9D and  when I op=
ened with open
office I could find all the table borders are filled with =E2=80=9CNO borde=
r=E2=80=9D option
which is different from what I gave in =E2=80=9Cdocument1.docx=E2=80=9D.

Follow up Test:

I took the file 1 =E2=80=9Cdocument1.docx=E2=80=9D and open it in lower ver=
sion of Microsoft
word 97-2003 and saved the document as =E2=80=9Cdocument2.doc=E2=80=9D it a=
ppears to be same as
I created in original =E2=80=9Cdocument1.docx=E2=80=9D.
Further I opened the =E2=80=9Cdocument2.doc=E2=80=9D in Open office I found=
 the tables were
correct as the original and saved the Open office file as =E2=80=9Cdocument=
2.odt=E2=80=9D.

I have attached the sample files which I used for test.

File 1: =E2=80=9Cdocument1.docx=E2=80=9D
File 2 =E2=80=9Cdocument1.odt
File 3: =E2=80=9Cdocument1_docx.pdf=E2=80=9D
File 4: =E2=80=9Cdocument1_odt.pdf=E2=80=9D
File 5: =E2=80=9Cdocument2.doc=E2=80=9D
File 6: =E2=80=9Cdocument2.odt=E2=80=9D

Speculation:=20

When I tried opening the document from Ms word 97-2003 to open office it
appears to be correct. So I speculate that some added features in MS word 2=
010
could not be read correctly by Open office.

Importance of bug:

Tables are used in many places to make the document looks better and visual=
ly
interesting like advertisements, resume etc.

For example: A person creating a resume using MS word for applying a job in
company and if he uses the table to express his traits in his resume such as
his academic score, technical skills, extra-curricular activities etc. If a
manager reads it through Open office, the resume will look differently which
may create an erroneous impression on that candidate and that person might =
end
up in losing the opportunity. As a user I will be disappointed with this
occurrence.
