I had this trouble before a long time ago, because a font was not found - the default font was used. Possibly it is a font / font location issue.

Hmm.. Maybe? But since I have OO and Libre running on the same box, they should be seeing the same fonts. I have confirmed that the fonts used are the same in the font listbox, so if something isn't being seen and is being substituted - it is hidden from the user. I think this is just a default number problem in either kerning, leading or spacing. Something is different between Libre and OO and it is a bug somewhere that will hit every user that relies on being able to re-create documents that were created and saved in OO... I know there are some strange numbers in the code. (like the 0.49" tab setting). There is probably another similar number at the bottom of this spacing issue where the lsb was accidentally delete of something weird like that. -- David C.

The best way to find bugs like this is to do a bisection. Since libre-office is a fork of open-office, there should be a continuous chain of commits from a working OO to a non-working LO. Bisection will show you the exact commit at which the problem first appeared. <http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-bisect.html> Cheers, Dave -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
