A strictly literal and technical translation, as provided by some translators
such as Google Translator, is not always the best way to express what the
native speaker should understand.  There are cases in which it is necessary to
express the same idea with other simpler words or expressions that mean the
same thing.  This happens with Microsoft Office and all other office suites
that compete with LibreOffice.

In the LO 7.1 branch, for example, all other words were omitted and only the
word "Contorno" was kept, possibly to make the meaning very compatible with the
meaning that Microsoft Word (Spanish version) has fixed for that same concept.
I attach a screenshot of the LO 7.1 branch (in Spanish) showing how the Spanish
translation was fixed for this same concept related to this bug.
