--- Comment #12 from David Edwards <2davidedwards at gmail.com> ---
I am not a technically competent person - what I was flagging up was that a
document using Times Roman which in previous iterations of LO opened in Times
Roman and had correct line lengths etc. in the latest version of LO opened in
Liberation Serif with altered spacing and a line which ran on. Lower down it
opened in something which looked more like typewriter script. As in the past
this document always displayed correctly I felt something was wrong. If for you
this behaviour of LO is correct/normal there's no bug. The fact is that it now
alters the document, requiring correction of the font and spacing whereas in
the past this was not necessary. As I probably originality imported the address
etc from a Word document, some compatibility appears to have been lost. But it
sounds as if this reflects a decision made as to how to deal with certain fonts
and for you it's normal.

My instinct as a user would be to go back to an earlier version of LO where
these problems don't occur, whilst not liking doing that. (Interestingly the
one I picked at random 5.3.3.2 causes big delays in scrolling in a large Calc
file (>20 000 lines) so I shall probably go back further, to 5.2.7.2 !)

But if you want to say it's not a bug and close it, that's OK by me. I'm not
competent to argue!!
