--- Comment #9 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
Request is twofold, a) ellipsis as one character, b) ellipsis with larger
spacing.

Depending on the journal you want to change the type, it must not break with
lines, and should be easy to apply. For a) it was suggested to use the auto
replacement function (could be the replacement table or even auto text) but I
can also imagine to use the special character and/or search/replace function.
In case of b) I'd suggest to use a character style with larger spacing. For
example 5pt, and what you type as three consecutive dots will look like dots
with spaces.

Does this work for you? Please consider that we have to find general solutions
and while it might seem as a workaround for you this should be the approach to
make everyone happy.
