        <pre>converting the Word 2007 OOXML (<span class=""><a href="http://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=132811" name="attach_132811" title="sample">attachment 132811</a> <a href="http://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=132811&action=edit" title="sample">[details]</a></span>) to ODF with Word 2016,
LibreOffice 5.3.3.2 retains the fo:letter-spacing of the MSO spacing value.
Exactly same handling with import filter opening into 5.3.3.2

So it is _not_ an issue with the DOCX/OOXML import filter.

Rather, edit engine rendering to document canvas does not reduce Xspacing/Fixed
Kerning below the 2.0pt value--either when rendering or as limited in the
SpinBox GUI.
