Have you filed a bug report to Microsoft Office?
The whole motive for using standardised tools is to *escape* the realms of
close-source and break the financial shackles. Thereby, you retain a
document(s) that will remain uniform throughout, regardless of the
application used. That is what ODF is set to achieve. HTML and CSS likewise
(W3C), but as we all know, Internet Explorer cannot render pages correctly,
which requires 'hacks'.
Best wishes,
Roy
