In some MS Word documents the orientation of the page is lost. We have attached
a test case wich demonstrates the problem.
Modifying the document a bit in Word could magically solve the problem (for
instance adding a paragraph, or removing a table).

The big issue is that with Open Office alone, we have no reliable way to read an
external document, because randomly the page layout (Landscape, Portrait) could
be lost.

The users need a reliable tool to read/write external documents in Microsoft
Office format. Even a small problem, like this one, makes the users to reject
Open Office as a real alternative tool. They don't trust it anymore.

As we don't want to duplicate bugs, we add info to this bug. This also shows
that the original bug  is encountered in many places, this is an important 
problem.
