--- Comment #4 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Apache OepnOffice through 4.1.6 release has built up a lot of technical debt in
its VCL rendering, one area that is especially true is in it font handling.
Since the 5.3 releases LibreOffice has refactored text layout to use Harfbuzz
and DirectWrite based rendering with OpenGL, with additional rework of GDI
rendering and corrected handling of font metrics.

Even in current LibreOffice--there are differences between OpenGL rendering and
default GDI only rendering (with HA or just CPU) and we have open issues to
improve both rendering modes.

Also, Apache OpenOffice does not support OpenGL rendering in any sense, so
comparing a 6.2.5 release of LibreOFfice in OpenGL mode, to a 4.1.6 release of
AOO is never going to produce matching layouts. You would need to test against
a 5.2.6 release, or earlier, of LibreOffice with default rendering to even
attempt a comparison. And if an issue were identified it would likely be a
WONTFIX, those builds are EOL.

The issue as presented with STR are invalid.

IMHO => INVALID
