Thanks for a friendly reminder! I believe you are right; this should be
posted under Users mailing list. Sorry.

Yes, when I open the document with Abiword, it looks good.

As far as I remember, the file originates in AbiWord. This issue could be
related to Abiword, like Pedro mentioned in his message. Thank you for your
time, anyway!

This request for help should be in the Users mailing list, not the Discuss
mailing list ;)

It would also save time if you had posted the sample file at AskLibO instead
of asking the same question on two sites.

For your information your document is an RTF with a wrong DOC extension
(just open it in any text editor).  I believe this was an old Abiword bug. 

LibreOffice has some known problems in handling with RTF files. The fact
that it is incorrectly identified as a MS Word DOC file doesn't help either.

Unfortunately opening and saving in several text editors can have this kind
of problems...

Can't reproduce this by saving, neither in LibreOffice
3.5.1.2 nor 3.4.5. But when I take your Original.doc and
choose "Save as", LO offers to save it as RTF. And my
Konqueror sees it as an RTF despite the .doc extension. Does
the file originate in MS-Write or TextPad or similar?

Where does this line spacing come from? Here I attach the original document.
The first time I opened it, it looked normal. However, if it is edited,
saved, and reopened using LO, the text will be truncated.

http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/file/n3988239/Original.doc Original.doc 

I had to set the style / spacing manually so that it became normal again.

Your Default style has a "Fixed" linespacing of 0.18cm,
switching that to "Simple" linespacing (or whatewer a bit
bigger) solves your problem.
