Created attachment 193881 Screenshot of Hebrew 95% proportional line spacing
This is not limited to English, nor to small values. Here you can see it affecting Hebrew noticeably at 95% proportional line spacing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1772430 Title: [upstream] Proportional line spacing under 100 % makes first line too low in LibreOffice Writer Status in LibreOffice: Confirmed Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Using proportional line spacing with less than 100 % makes the first line of each paragraph and each page considerably lower than all the other lines. This problem is an issue particularly with fonts designed for Arabic, where the default line spacing is very big so as to allow for space for optional vowel marks below and above the line. If these marks are not used, the space between the lines is often too big. If I change line spacing to proportional 80 %, most of the lines look fine but the first line of each paragraph and of each page (even without a paragraph break) gets crammed into the second line. As a user, I would rather expect the first line to have the same visual height as all the other lines. See the attached document and screenshots using Noto Naskh Arabic and 80 % line spacing.
