            Bug ID: 119493
           Summary: FILESAVE DOCX: Writer User Fields converted into plain
                    text instead of Set variables
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.1.0.3 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

writer_test_userfield

steps to reproduce:
- create a new writer document
- insert a User Field (Ctrl+F2 -> Variables/User Field) 
  Name:  X_TEST 
  Value: Hello World!
  Format: Text

- save as *.odt
- save as *.docx
- User Field "X_TEST" with content "Hello World!" is
  exported as: "User Field X_TEST = Hello World!"
  -> read-/editing in word is difficult.

- save as *.doc results in text: "Hello World!"
  -> at least read-/editing in Word is possible

AFAIK User Fields are not supported in Word:
2.1.96 Part 1 Section 7.4.9, text:user-field-get
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj670930(v=office.12).aspx

possible solution:
"OpenXML/ODF Translator Command Line Tools" from 
http://odf-converter.sourceforge.net/download.html 
converts UserFields into Set Variables.

attached a sample *.odt/*.docx and converted *.docx file
