Issue Summary
It is observed that a word document that has text boxes is not rendering properly in Confluence when using the 'Office Word' macro, making it difficult to read.
Steps to Reproduce
- Create a document in MS Word and add text boxes in between paragraphs. See below doc and screenshot for reference :

- test.docx

- Then in confluence, attach this document to a page.
- Add this on a page using ‘Office Word’ macro
- We can see the text boxes are not rendered properly as seen below :

Expected Results
Document should be rendered correctly
Actual Results
Document not rendered correctly
Workaround
On doing some further tests, the only workarounds that worked for now are :
- Either remove the text boxes and merge that text as normal paragraphs in the original word document and then add to the confluence page again.
- Or export the document to pdf and use the pdf macro in confluence page. That works fine as well and renders the text boxes as it is.
