I have seen many times that the filter for rtf in Libo/OOo is not the best.
Copy in Worpad and paste in LibreOffice as text without format, and then
use the styles in Libo to format the text and always save as ODT, I
think is best option.

But what is the trouble in use directly Libo, have you adjust the
Menu/Tools/Options/LibreOffice/Memory?, to get a better performance.
