Re: [libreoffice-users] Problem with subscript in Impress
Today could reproduce the problem in Win7 running in Virtualbox on a Mac. As recommended I have produced two screenshots and a pdf file that can be downloaded at http://db.tt/klaLw5R. The first screenshot is in the normal editing view and the second one is in the slide show mode. As you see the compressed subscript the also survives into the pdf file. Please tell me if I you think I should file a bug report, or if it should be handled in a different way. Best regards, Mårten 2011/8/6 Ilja Gerhardt i...@cryptix.de I observe a similar behavior in LO 3.4.? under Ubuntu Linux. I am also coming from the Chemistry perspective here. It seems to be better now. I basically work with one font (Gill Sans) and had the feeling that it might be better with different fonts (Arial). A workaround here would be to align the positions and shrinking by hand - i.e. adjust the parameters for position and shrinking..

Hi :) Or you could upload it to Image Shack or Ubuntu One or something and give just a couple of people the link to it by personal email rather than to the entire list (if the document is fairly confidential).

Re: [libreoffice-users] Problem with subscript in Impress
Hi :) Have you tried NeoOffice for Mac? Also which version of LibreOffice are you using? The 3.3.3 should be the best but the ultra new 3.4.2 is worth trying. To install more than one version of OOo, LO or NeoOffice this guide might help http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel to prevent them clashing Good luck and regards from Tom :) From: Mårten Behm marten.b...@gmail.com To: users@global.libreoffice.org Sent: Mon, 1 August, 2011 20:54:39 Subject: [libreoffice-users] Problem with subscript in Impress I am using Impress for lecturing in chemical engineering and subscripts in chemical formulae is a crucial feature.
