--- Comment #4 from robert at prino.org ---
Cubiculum is on my system, and the formatting in LO is screwed up, Word has
absolutely no problems with it.

And don't tell me to use .ODT, unless you have a version of LO that runs on
IBM's z/OS, which is where dozens of our files originate. 

.ODT is a stunningly complicated bloatware format and .RTF is just simple plain
text that can very easily be created on z/OS. 

And your "but the tab stops (haphazardly set on generation of the RTF) will
cause issues for the alignment and lines." remark is plain arrogant! The tabs
were purposely set to the values in the document to generate the three-column
layout!

Stop adding new "new shiny and whiter than white" features to the suite, and
concentrate on removing bug like these, you know, that 80/20 rule! People
needing the most complicated functions work in environments where the price of
an office suite is 0.001% of their daily turnover, and nobody gives an (fill in
your favourite expletive) about it!
