Machiel, As you are not subscribe to the users mailing list you most likely have missed the activity & responses to your issue. You can view the thread here: <http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/BrowseList?list=users&by=thread&from=2030149> Please see: http://www.openoffice.org/mail_list.html for details and how to subscribe or view the archives so that you may see responses from other OOo users. Please *only* reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED] The list responses are from OOo users (like yourself) so nobody here officially represents OOo. To sum up the thread: o Your document has been tested in linux on: - OOo 2.3.1, 2.4.0, and 3.0devM6 (development build - not released) o 2.3.1 and 2.4.0 do exhibit the problems you report - 3.0devM5/6 does not o Ganesha Bhaskara has kindly offered to file a bug, but in order to do so he'll need to use your document, or a facsimile to do so. Given that your thesis is now public (via posting to the list), do you have any objection to it being included in the bug report? Hopefully this can be fixed in 2.4.1. If you'd like to try the pre-release 3.0dev in the interim, you can download the M5 Windows version here: http://download.openoffice.org/680/?intcmp=1235 - no java is here: http://download.openoffice.org/680/index-nojs.html *Please* backup your documents prior to installing 3.0dev & remember that this is a pre-released OOo version. Also note that I have not tried your document in 3.0dev Windows as I typically don't use Windows; I can boot to Windows later today and give it a test if you don't mind waiting awhile longer. -- You have been cc'd on this reply as you have posted to an open OOo mailing list.
