                    to odt retaining information on single line..
           Product: LibreOffice

Description:
Contracts in Word frequently contain style separators such as for definition
clauses. This has been reproduced on page 2 attached Word document. Other
problems exist such as conversion of the TOC retaining columns. However the bug
in which the odt format file has two lines for each Word single line including
style separator renders Libreoffice Writer unusable as this bug results in
excessive lines in a document in which it is essential to visually contain
information to one page. Also due to discussions referring to page numbers it
is not advisable to change the layout area and page numbering. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create Word document with style separator used over on page as in law
office/business common practice.
2.Open said Word document with LO Writer.
3.Save in odt format to reveal bugs.

Actual Results:
Major bug in sample document is inability to reproduce Word style separator
effect so as to retain single lines containing the information. Double line
appearance in Writer means document area is effectively doubles compared to the
Word appearance.

Expected Results:
Bug persists with no apparent remedy.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
Retained the style separator information so that the sigle Word lines can be
reproduced in Writer.
