Rogier , There are some macro's or a extention around who makes the formating tags visible, just like we had with the good old WordPerfect, do some googling on "Iannz, RevealCodes" hope it helps Fernand Hmm, disappointing though. I cannot see how these kinds of things can be avoided if you a

Hmm, disappointing though. I cannot see how these kinds of things can be avoided if you are editing a manuscript, and I never had such problems in the past with OO in 2002, with a book that certainly went through just as many revisions. I am clueless anymore how to fix it. If I fix one, another on

Rogier , Its not worth a issue, its user related due to serial direct formating, spaces folowd by spaces etc..When checking the underlying XML you can sea lots of unused tags and sometimes the PDF-creator is confused :-) The solution and the probable cause... In the end, this problem was fixa

The solution and the probable cause... In the end, this problem was fixable, by using 'clear direct formatting' in the areas affected. (Could not do whole doc lest we wipe out italics and such). The amazing fact was that the problem did not manifest in a PDF at the subdocument level, it just show

Well, this is even more bizarre than I thought. This is all happening in the context of a master document. In unpredictable ways, there are either ellipses or opening quotes that suddenly appear enlarged in the pdf of the master doc, causing also irregular line spacing. The same problem is not evi

Well I've tried with doPDF and the same absurd irregularities appear... so that is not an improvement over the native pdf conversion. Meanwhile, no pics, no special fonts, unless you consider Times New Roman a special font. No Cambria Math, just plain old text. And it is really odd when you see th
