Psycona, thank you for reporting this bug and helping make Ubuntu better. I am unable to reproduce this issue in LibreOffice Writer via the Terminal:

cd ~/Desktop && wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/556169/+attachment/1574464/+files/Installation_Guide_OOo3.rtf && lowriter -nologo Installation_Guide_OOo3.rtf

File -> Save As -> Save button -> Yes button -> Keep Format button notice LO does not crash.

Does this work for you?
