Original doc file

Problem description: 

I have LibreOffice 3.5.2 installed on a macbook running OSX 10.6 (Snow
Leopard).
It does not correctly display bullets points, table borders and title
underlining of documents created in Word 2007.

1) Bullets Points Incorrect

For both doc and docx formats the bullet points do not display correctly when
viewed on the macbook screen. The "black filled in circle bullets" display as
"square boxes with a cross in". The document also spreads onto two pages.
However, if from within LibreOffice the documents are saved as pdf files, the
bullet points are almost correct in the resultant pdf files for both pdfs (much
better than when viewed on the macbook screen). In the pdf files the document
still spreads onto two pages.


2) Table Borders Missing When Viewing docx file

In LibreOffice the table borders are present for both the doc and docx versions
when viewed on the macbook screen. 
However, the table borders are missing from the pdf created from the docx
version. It is correct for the doc version.


3) Title Underlining Missing When Viewing doc file

In LibreOffice for the doc version, in both the screen display and the created
pdf, the "Title" is not correctly underlined. It is correct for the docx
version.

Steps to reproduce:

1) Open the attached doc and docx files in LibreOffice to see the display
issue. I have attached pdf showing the correct display behaviour as reference.

2) From within LibreOffice save doc and docx files as pdf files.


I have attached a number of relevant files to this ticket.

The original file (single page A4 document) created in Word 2007 used the
default theme, bullets etc, on a machine running Windows Vista). I created both
doc and docx versions of the document. These two files are:

Word 2007 Defaults Basic Headings Table and Bullet Point Checks 97-2003Doc.doc
Word 2007 Defaults Basic Headings Table and Bullet Point Checks.docx

I created (saved from within Word 2007) two pdf files that matched the display
of the documents seen on the Windows Vista machine. These are the files:

Word 2007 Defaults Basic Headings Table and Bullet Point Checks 97-2003Doc.pdf
Word 2007 Defaults Basic Headings Table and Bullet Point Checks.pdf

Full list of attached files:

Original doc file:
Word 2007 Defaults Basic Headings Table and Bullet Point Checks 97-2003Doc.doc

Original docx file:
Word 2007 Defaults Basic Headings Table and Bullet Point Checks.docx

PDF file created from Word 2007 of doc file:
Word 2007 Defaults Basic Headings Table and Bullet Point Checks 97-2003Doc.pdf

PDF file created from Word 2007 of docx file:
Word 2007 Defaults Basic Headings Table and Bullet Point Checks.pdf

LibreOffice created Pdf from doc file:

97-2003Doc.pdf

LibreOffice created Pdf from docx file:
OSX10.6 LO3.5.2 Word 2007 Defaults Basic Headings Table and Bullet Point
Checks.pdf

Current behavior:
LibreOffice does display the file as expected and LibreOffice does not create
the pdf file as expected.

Expected behavior:
LibreOffice display of documents to match that in word.
LibreOffice pdf creation to match that displayed in LibreOffice.

Platform (if different from the browser): 
LibreOffice 3.5.2 installed on a macbook running OSX 10.6 (Snow Leopard)
