--- Comment #14 from Piotr <frankaen at interia.pl> ---
Here is another hint, and the bug, actually:

this "new" rendering, since 5.3 is somehow badly calibrated.
Proof:

take the example .odt file here, mark all the line "Prices..." > Character >
Position > set Kerning to -0.1 pt (the lowest possible).

The whole line shrinks around 17%. From a DTP point of view this is absolutely
a disaster, if 0.1 pt kerning affects the line that much. Never seen something
like this, and I worked on Ventura, PageMaker, Word Perfect and mostly, on OO
and LO Writer.

My guess is, these are the programmers who are working on LO, glory to them,
but the software is used by people like me, from DTP. And the programmers
naturally cannot know how DTP should work.

So this is the whole thing with rendering too much or whatever, I am not a
programmer. :)
