Bug description:

  Binary package hint: libreoffice

  1)
  Natty:
  lsb_release -rd
  Description:        Ubuntu Natty (development branch)
  Release:        11.04

  Maverick:
  lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 10.10
  Release:	10.10

  2)
  Natty:
  apt-cache policy libreoffice-writer
  libreoffice-writer:
    Installed: 1:3.3.1-1ubuntu5
    Candidate: 1:3.3.1-1ubuntu5

  OpenOffice.org 3.3.0
  OOO330m20 (Build:9567)

  3) What is expected to happen is when one opens attached file at the
  Terminal:

  cd ~/Desktop && wget
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/710812/+attachment/1820157/+files/try_bad_in_OpenOfficeWriter.docx
  && lowriter -nologo try_bad_in_OpenOfficeWriter.docx

  it looks as it would in Abiword or Microsoft Office Word Viewer 2003.

  4) What happened instead is the document opens in portrait with
  OpenOffice Writer & LibreOffice Writer, with the tables spilling out
  of the page horizontally.

  WORKAROUND: Open in Abiword or Microsoft Office Word Viewer 2003 via
  WINE sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa && sudo apt-get -y
  update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade && sudo apt-get -y install wine1.2
