Document Showing Problem

Hi All,

Attached: Test case created by my professor - I have multiple documents that
have the same issue. As for creating from scratch - honestly not sure how she
made them. I spoke with her after class and she did admit they were created
using "multiple versions of Microsoft Office". Also as a release - she gave
permission for me to make her document public :)

I have verified that they work no problem in Microsoft Office 2010

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open attached document


Immediately notice that formatting is off compared to Microsoft Office (I'll
attach a pdf to show what it looks like in MS Office)


2. Left click at end of line saying "I. Introduction to the Lawyer’s Role"

3. Push enter

Observed:
Formatting is completely messed up, fixing it is either incredibly tedious or
almost impossible

Expected: Outline style should be maintained

Furthermore:

Try to undo - nothing happens

&

If you start "promoting" the level of the line (by either using the button on
bottom of LibreOffice or using tab + enter at beginning of line) the entire
style gets changed from "Default Style" to heading styles, becoming bolded and
more. Plus if you undo at this stage the entire document becomes corrupted


Marking as:
Critical - completely breaks document making it unusable + you can't even undo
the screw ups
High - usually highest but marking as High as I don't know how to reproduce
this from a blank document so not sure how many people could potentially be
affected

Major may be appropriate - I'll let an unbiased person make that call as this
makes using LibreOffice for school incredibly painful for me :-/
