+ 3) What is expected to happen in LibreOffice Writer via the Terminal:
+ 
+ cd ~/Desktop && wget
+ 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/211345/+attachment/253514/+files/Vorlage%20Brief.ott
+ && unoconv --listener && unoconv -f rtf Vorlage\ Brief.ott && lowriter
+ -nologo Vorlage\ Brief.ott Vorlage\ Brief.rtf
+ 
+ the text fields remain.
+  
+ 4) What happens instead is they disappear.
+ 
+ PARTIAL WORKAROUND: Convert to .rtf via AbiWord. This will not preserve
+ the text field function but will preserve the words.
+ 
+ abiword --to=rtf --to-name=Vorlage\ Brief.rtf Vorlage\ Brief.ott &&
+ abiword Vorlage\ Brief.rtf
