            Bug ID: 132695
           Summary: Explanation of "Character Background" in "Tools -
                    Options - Load/Save - Microsoft Office" is not too
                    clear
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.0.0.alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Documentation

In the context of the lengthy discussions in
  https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125268
I went to the documentation at
  https://help.libreoffice.org/7.0/en-US/text/shared/optionen/01130200.html
and found that a little, um, dense:

     "Microsoft Office has two character attributes similar to
     LibreOfficeDev character background. Select the appropriate 
     attribute (highlighting or shading) which you would like to 
     use during export to Microsoft Office file formats."

It would be great to enhance this and guide which choice to make in what case.

I am not an expert, but definitely volunteer to help assess any changes on
whether they would have helped clarify the situation for me as a user.

Perhaps the following suggested addition can be a start? 

     "Shading tries to maintain color fidelity between LibreOffice and
     Microsoft Office to the extent possible. Choose this if interoperability
     is your primary concern.  Highlighting uses a brighter color palette when
     exporting to Microsoft Office formats, which makes text stand out more
     strongly while creating more of a visual difference. Choose this if your
     priority is the highlighting effect over visual fidelity."
