​While the initial statement is exaggerated, moving a file between two computers using the same version of MSO can produce different results, with no obvious reasons. Of course after digging enough an explanation can be found, but I've seen it happen often enough to be noticeable. This was in the beginning of the docx format, but I would not be surprised if things didn't change much in it's ~10 years of existence. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
