Re: [SLE] Intercharacter spacing in OpenOffice

I've noticed that the intercharacter spacing of OpenOffice documents is not calculated correctly for the on-screen display, even though it is OK in the printed documents. A specific case in point is the display of Times New Roman. Antialiasing appears to be on, since when I temporarily turned it off the characters themselves looked pretty bad. The font help at OpenOffice.org has nothing that I can find on this issue. Any suggestions?

Times New Roman is an MS font, badly adhering to the standards. I work with a Mac, where it also causes problems. My suggestion would be to substitute Times New Roman with Times. SH
