As per GNOME's Human Interface Guidelines, I would recommend hiding OpenOffice's
scrollbars automatically if there is nothing to scroll. While this may rarely
happen with the Vertical scrollbar, the Horizontal scrollbar, however, is rarely
(never) used in "page width" or "optimal" zoom.

The scrollbar (that cannot be scrolled anyway) adds uneccesary visual clutter.

I know this is from the GNOME HIG, but I believe this could be applied to all
platforms. Quote from the HIG (they refer to GTK I know):
"Only display scrollbars when they are required for sliding the view. If an
object fits inside the viewer control, don't draw scrollbars. If you are using a
GtkScrolledWindow, call gtk_scrolled_window_set_policy  setting the appropriate
axis (or axes) to GTK_POLICY_AUTOMATIC."
